Description

This peach pie recipe is a juicy, golden-brown summer classic made with fresh or frozen peaches and a buttery double crust. Easy, sweet, and always crowd-pleasing!


Ingredients

Scale

5 cups sliced peaches (fresh or thawed frozen)
¾ cup white sugar
1½ tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons cornstarch (or all-purpose flour)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch of salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
2 pie crusts (homemade or store-bought)
1 egg (for egg wash)


Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Brush lightly with beaten egg.
In a large bowl, combine peaches, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Pour the peach mixture into the prepared crust and dot with cubed butter.
Cover with the second crust. Seal and crimp the edges, cut slits in the top for ventilation.
Brush the top crust with egg wash. Optionally sprinkle with sugar.
Bake for 45–50 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbling.
Let cool for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.

Notes

Use cornstarch if your peaches are extra juicy.
Tent the edges with foil if they brown too quickly.
Letting the pie rest ensures clean, juicy slices.
Great with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
