This is Magee’s peach pie recipe and I just love it. She scribbled it on a post-it note for me years ago and I go back to it every year. As you can see in the picture, I have a hard time waiting for the pie to actually cool before I eat it, so mine gets messy. Maybe you’ll have more patience than I do. π
Informal poll! How do you like your peach pie? Plain? With ice cream? With whipped cream? My Grandpa used to top his apple pie with half a slice of American cheese; I was never sure how I felt about that.Β What’s your vote for peach pie?
Peach pie
Ingredients
- 2 pie crusts of your choice
- 1 egg, beaten
- 4 cups peaches, sliced (this can be approximate)
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 Tbsp. corn starch
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 2 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450F
- Place one pie crust in your pie pan and brush with some of the egg (so the crust doesn’t get soggy)
- Gently mix together the peaches, sugar, corn starch, lemon juice, cinnamon and nutmeg, then pour into pie pan
- Cut up the butter and dot it over the top of the pie, then top with the other pie crust. Be sure to cut slits or use a pie bird so the steam can escape, and brush the top crust with the rest of the egg
- Put the pie pan on a foil-covered cookie sheet for easy cleanup of any spillover, then bake for 10 minutes 450, then add a pie shield or cover the crust edges with foil
- Reduce temp to 350F and bake another 30 minutes or so, until juice is bubbling through crust vents
I feel like ice cream is a must for fruit pie (for me)! π
I feel like ice cream is a must in general. π
I’m going to be the weirdo. I don’t like peach pie! I have no idea why, but I hate hot peaches. So no peach pie, no peach cobbler. Any other fruit I’m fine, but not peaches. My grandmother did the slice of cheese on apple pie, too. I have yet to try it. Berry cobbler or apple pie…definitely needs a scoop of good vanilla!
WEIRDO!! No, I get that; we all have our things. I don’t like SEEDS! That’s weird.
I’ve never heard of anyone else doing the cheese on apple pie! I love it!
I love fresh peaches! I love making peach cobbler with fresh peaches this time of year. And I can’t wait for it to cool either, so I always top with vanilla ice cream!
Yes! I made a cobbler yesterday!
i’m actually with Leah – i don’t like hot peaches. i don’t like cooked apples either unless there’s a bit of crunch still to them. but i LOVE fresh peaches & cold peaches. i’m a bit fan of vanilla ice cream over sliced fresh peaches, topped with a little brown sugar granola. so maybe that would work on the pie, too?
OOH that sounds good!
I don’t like warm peaches. Room temp or cold is fine….looks like I’m not in the minority here. Movin’ to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches. It keeps saying that my comment is too short, should I keep singing? Peaches come from a can, they were out there by a man…
That is my favorite John Prine song… Possibly my most favorite song ever. π
I absolutely love the idea of the slice of cheese on the pie! I’ve had a recipe saved for an apple pie with cheddar crust for ages. Must make soon! But as for my personal experience, any kind of pie a la mode is the way to go!
Ooh a cheddar crust! I definitely want to hear about that.
I recall an Andy Griffith show where Andy asks Aunt Bee for a slice of cheese on his apple pie.
Peach pie with ice cream, yes! In a pinch, I’ve poured cold evaporated milk (not condensed!) on the pie instead.
With French vanilla ice cream, of course! That cheese thing makes me gag.
Well notice I didn’t say _I_ had tried the cheese thing….
