PEACH PIE WITH ALMOND CRUMBLE TOPPING
Steps:
- To make topping: Combine flour, sugar and nutmeg in a mixing bowl; stir well to mix and stir in sliced almonds. Stir in butter evenly. Set aside for 5 minutes, then, using your fingertips, break the mixture into 1/4 to 1/2-inch crumbs. Set aside again while you prepare the filling.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees and set racks at middle level. Roll out bottom crust and arrange in 9-inch Pyrex plate.
- To make filling: Peel the peaches by cutting a cross in the blossom end of each and dropping them three at a time into a pan of boiling water. Remove after 20 or 30 seconds with a slotted spoon or skimmer and drop them into a bowl of ice water. If the peaches are ripe, the skin will slip off easily. If it does not, remove the skin with a sharp stainless steel paring knife. (If you peel it with a knife, include an extra peach for what you have peeled away.) Hold each peeled peach gently in your left hand over a mixing bowl (if you are left handed reverse.) With a stainless steel paring knife make a cut through to the pit, from stem to blossom end. Make another cut about 3/4-inch to the right of the first one along the outside of the peach. Angle the knife blade back so the cuts meet at the pit. Twist the knife blade upward slightly as a wedge of peach will fall into the bowl. Continue in the same manner around the peach, cutting it into 8 to 10 wedges. Discard the pit and repeat with remaining peaches. Add remaining ingredients, except the butter, to the peaches and stir gently with a rubber spatula to combine. Pour filling into the prepared pastry shell and smooth. Dot with the butter.
- Scatter the crumb topping evenly over the filling. Place pie on the bottom rack of the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Lower the temperature to 350 degrees and move pie to the middle rack. Bake another 30 minutes, or until the crust and crumble are a deep golden and the juices are just beginning to bubble up. Cool the pie on a rack and serve warm or room temperature.
PEACH PIE WITH ALMOND-PECAN STREUSEL
Cut from our local newspaper a few years ago. It has become a family favorite. "If apple is the quintessential American pie, then peach is surely our summertime favorite, and all the more if it's served a la mode. To make a peach pie worth of the name, use fully ripe fruit and a pastry crust that's rich and tender but still sturdy enough to contain its sweet, juicy burden without collapsing. To remove the skins from peaches easily, pour boiling water over them, then quickly dip fruit into ice water. Use your fingers or a small knife to slip off the skins. This recipe calls for a crumbly nut topping, but you could substitue a classic lattice crust that lets the fruit show through. Serve the pie warm or at room temperatue, with or without ice cream. To gauge the amount of sugar and cornstarch to use, take your cue from the ripeness of the peaches; if they are very sweet-tasting and quite juicy, use the smaller amount of sugar and the large amount of cornstarch."

PEACH STREUSEL SLAB PIE
There are two great things about this summer slab pie: It serves a big crowd and you don't have to roll out the dough. We opted for a press-in dough (reminiscent of shortbread), which is super easy to make and saves lots of time. For something a little different, substitute pecans or skinned hazelnuts for the almonds in the streusel topping.

Steps:
- Adjust a rack to the bottom third of the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease the bottom and sides of a rimmed 10-by-15-inch baking sheet with butter.
- For the dough: Combine the butter, flour, confectioners' sugar and salt in a food processor and process until the mixture comes together in a solid mass (this may take a few minutes). Drop pieces of the dough all over the prepared baking sheet. Use your fingers to press the dough evenly along the bottom and about 1/2 inch up the sides of the pan, filling any gaps. Set aside.
- For the filling: Toss together the peaches, brown sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl until the cornstarch dissolves. Transfer the filling onto the crust and spread in an even layer. Bake for 30 minutes.
- For the streusel: While the pie bakes, make the strussel topping by combining the flour, almonds, brown sugar, melted butter and salt in a small bowl until evenly moistened.
- Remove the pie from the oven and sprinkle the streusel evenly over the filling. Return the pie to the oven and bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes more. (If the crust browns too quickly during baking, cover the pie loosely with foil.)
- Let the pie cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

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.

PEACH PIE
I acquired this delicious peach pie filling recipe some 40 years ago, when my husband and I first moved to southern Iowa and had peach trees growing in our backyard. It's been a family favorite since then and always brings back memories of both summer and those happy early years. - June Mueller, Sioux City, Iowa

Tips:
- For the best results, use ripe peaches. If your peaches are not ripe, you can ripen them by placing them in a paper bag at room temperature for a few days.
- To prevent the pie crust from becoming soggy, brush it with a beaten egg before adding the filling.
- If you don't have a pie plate, you can use a 9-inch baking dish.
- To make the streusel topping, you can use either chopped almonds or pecans. If you use pecans, toast them in a 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes before chopping them.
- Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
This peach pie with almond-pecan streusel is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. The combination of sweet peaches, crunchy streusel topping, and flaky pie crust is irresistible. This pie is perfect for any occasion, from a casual gathering to a special holiday meal.
