- Yields:
-
1 pie
- Serves:
- 8
ingredients
- 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
directions
- 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.

I had never made a peach pie before this was my first attempt. It was wonderful. My family loved it and I have made it twice since finding this recipe.

Hi my name is Shree. I love cooking although sometimes I get stressed instead of enjoying it. I have been collecting cookbooks and recipes that Id like to try for most of my life. I even started writing a cookbook one time. I never finished it though LOL! I still collect recipes and I like to try my own twist on most of them. I guess Im famous for my deserts, but I like cooking all kinds of dishes. I like to find things at a restaurant that I can recreate at home with similar ingredients.
