Ingredients
- 5 cups of peeled and sliced peaches 5-6 medium peaches
- 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice juice from about 2 lemons
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup light brown sugar packed
- 2 ready-made refrigerated pie crusts or homemade
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large egg white
- 1 Tablespoon water
- Additional cinnamon and granulated sugar for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400℉. Move the oven rack to a position in the lower third of the oven.
- Place peaches in a colander. Pour lemon juice over the top and toss to distribute. Let excess juice drain.
- Place peaches, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl and toss to combine. Let sit for 15 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate with about an inch overhang.
- Drain most of the juices in the bowl. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch. Toss to combine. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Dot the top of the peach filling with thin slices of butter.
- Roll out the second pie crust. Using a pastry cutter, pizza cutter, or knife, cut eight 1-inch strips.
- Lay four strips vertically across the pie plate, letting the strips overlap the edges. Lay four strips horizontally, weaving in a traditional lattice top or placing them over the vertical strips making a second layer. Roll the edges toward the center of the pie, tucking in the ends of the lattice strips. Crimp or flute the edge of the crust as desired.
- Combine the water and egg white in a small bowl to make an egg wash. Brush the crust with the egg wash and sprinkle with cinnamon and granulated sugar.
- Bake pie for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375℉ and bake an additional 35-40 minutes or until the filling is bubbling and the crust is golden brown. Cover with foil to prevent the crust from getting too brown.
- Cool for 3-4 hours. The pie will set up as it cools. It can be served warm.
Notes
- Store pie in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Freeze: bake and cool pie completely. Wrap in plastic wrap and foil and place in a freezer bag. Store for up to 3 months. Thaw in refrigerator.
- Lemon juice prevents the peaches from browning too much. Draining the juices is essential to preventing a soupy pie. Do not use bruised or over rip peaches.
- Use a glass pie plate. One MAJOR reason - You can see the pie crust through it. There is no guessing game on whether the crust is done or not. Glass bakes faster - this recipe may take a little more time using a metal or ceramic plate. It encourages more even baking than a metal or ceramic pie plate.
- If desired, place a baking sheet on the rack BELOW the pie (not on same rack). This will help catch any drips or bubbled over juices (although you shouldn't have any with my recipe).
