Peach Pie
Description
The Peach Pie combines fresh, sliced peaches with a blend of white and brown sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour to thicken the fruit juices during baking. Butter is added for richness. The mixture is layered over a single pastry crust in a 9-inch pie plate, then covered with a second crust featuring vent slits for steam to escape.
An egg wash of beaten egg and water is brushed on the top crust and sprinkled with coarse sanding sugar to create a glossy, crunchy surface once baked. The pie is baked at 350°F (176.6°C) for about 45 minutes until the crust is golden and filling bubbly.
When removed from the oven, the pie is allowed to cool inside to help set the filling. This peach pie highlights the natural sweetness and texture of fresh peaches complemented by warm spices and a flaky crust, making it suitable for dessert or a sweet snack.
