Peach Pie Recipe
Description
Start by lining a pie dish with pie crust and preparing the peach filling by combining peeled and sliced ripe peaches with lemon juice, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and cornstarch. The cornstarch thickens the natural juices released by the peaches during baking. This mixture is spooned into the pie shell evenly.
The top crust is cut into strips and woven into a lattice pattern over the filling, providing a visually appealing design and allowing steam to escape. Brushing the top with an egg wash creates a shiny, golden crust as it bakes. The pie bakes at 400 degrees until the filling bubbles and the crust is cooked, which takes 30 to 40 minutes.
The result is a warm, tender peach pie with a balanced sweetness and gentle spice, ideal for dessert after a meal. It pairs well with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if desired.
Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consumed within 4 to 5 days to maintain freshness.
Ingredients
- pie crust Homemade or Pre-made, baked
- 7 large peach peeled and sliced, ripe
- 1 tbsp lemon juice fresh
- ⅓ cup sugar
- ⅓ cup light brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 Tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Peach Filling
- Using a large bowl, mix your peach slices with lemon juice. Mix in the sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and cornstarch.
- Spoon the peach mixture into the pie shell.
Make the Lattice top
- Unroll the remaining pie dough and cut into 12 strips. Lay half of the strips horizontally. Gently fold back the strips in half. Working from the middle of the pie to the edge, lay a vertical strip down the middle. Fold back over every other one of the horizontal strips. Lay another piece of pie crust vertically. Fold back over the other strips so that they are flat and fold the first strips back in half.
- You’re going to continue to do this till you have a lattice crust.
Bake
- Brush the top of the pie crust with an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 Tablespoon of water).
- Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes or until the pie filling is starting to bubble
- Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
- Cut into slices and serve with ice cream or fresh whipped cream!
Notes
- Store leftover peach pie wrapped or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for best quality for up to 4-5 days.
