Categories     Pie

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (15 ounce) package pastry dough, for a 9 inch double crust pie
1 egg, beaten
5 cups sliced peeled peaches
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Line the bottom and sides of a 9 inch pie plate with one of the pie crusts. Brush with some of the beaten egg to keep the dough from becoming soggy later.
  • Place the sliced peaches in a large bowl, and sprinkle with lemon juice. Mix gently. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Pour over the peaches, and mix gently. Pour into the pie crust, and dot with butter. Cover with the other pie crust, and fold the edges under. Flute the edges to seal or press the edges with the tines of a fork dipped in egg. Brush the remaining egg over the top crust. Cut several slits in the top crust to vent steam.
  • Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes, until the crust is brown and the juice begins to bubble through the vents. If the edges brown to fast, cover them with strips of aluminum foil about halfway through baking. Cool before serving. This tastes better warm than hot.

OLD FASHIONED FRESH PEACH PIE

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 1 pie, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

pastry for double-crust pie
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons flour or 3 tablespoons instant tapioca
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg or 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
5 cups peeled sliced fresh peaches
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line 9-inch pie plate with pastry. Combine sugar, flour, spice and salt. Add to peaches and mix lightly. Fill pie shell with peach mixture. Dot with butter. Place top crust and crimp edges. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until done.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm peaches: Use peaches that are ripe and firm, but not too soft. This will ensure that they hold their shape when baked.
  • Peel the peaches: Peeling the peaches is optional, but it will give your pie a smoother texture. To peel the peaches, simply score the skin with a sharp knife and then plunge them into boiling water for about 30 seconds. The skin will then easily peel off.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the peaches: This will help to prevent the peaches from becoming bruised or mashed.
  • Add sugar and spices to taste: The amount of sugar and spices you add to your pie filling is a matter of personal preference. However, a good starting point is to use 1 cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon for every 4 cups of peaches.
  • Thicken the pie filling: If you want your pie filling to be thicker, you can add a cornstarch slurry. To make a cornstarch slurry, simply mix together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Then, add the slurry to the pie filling and cook over medium heat until thickened.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown: The pie should be baked until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This usually takes about 45-50 minutes.

Conclusion:

Peach pie is a classic summer dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet and juicy filling and flaky crust, it's the perfect way to enjoy the fresh flavors of summer. So next time you have a hankering for something sweet, give this old-fashioned peach pie recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
