Ingredients

Pie Crust

Filling

  • 7 large peaches pealed and sliced
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • cup brown sugar
  • ¾ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • cup cornstarch

Crumble Topping

Instructions

  • Using a food processor, mix together butter, flour and salt. Mix for 2-3 seconds until the dough forms small chunks.
  • Add water, one tablespoon at a time, to the mixture and mix for 10 seconds. Continue adding water until the dough starts to form large clumps. Be careful not to add too much water.
  • Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface and press it into the shape of a ball using your hands. Carefully flatten it into a disc. Wrap the dough in two layers of plastic wrap and immediately place it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
  • Lightly flour your workspace and remove the dough from the refrigerator. Using a rolling pin, evenly roll the dough into a circle. Roll the dough until it is 3 inches larger than your pie dish.
  • Transfer the dough to a pie dish by folding it in half and then into a quarter. Carefully unfold the dough in the pie dish. Once the dough has been arranged in the dish, you can create your crust pattern.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for an additional 30 minutes.

Filling

  • Preheat oven to 375℉
  • Mix sliced peaches and lemon juice together.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg salt, and cornstarch. Pour the peaches into the sugar mixture and carefully stir. Set aside

Crumble Topping

  • Cut the cold butter into cubes and place in a bowl. Add brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix together using a pastry cutter.
  • Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator and fill it with the peach filling. Then, sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the top.
  • Bake for 20 minutes at 375℉, then turn the oven up to 400℉ and bake for an additional 25 minutes.

Notes

    • Use just ripe peaches: Choose peaches that are just ripe, as overly ripe peaches will fall apart and be difficult to peel.
    • Storage: Leftover peach pie will keep on the kitchen counter for 3-4 days, covered with a pie cover or aluminum foil. To extend its shelf life, you can place the pie in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or the freezer for up to 3 months. 
    • Plan accordingly: Because the crust needs to rest twice, you’ll need to get the dough started well before you want to serve the pie. 
    • For easy peeling: Place the peaches in a pot of boiling water for a few seconds, and once cool, remove the peels. 
    • Cool completely: Allow the pie to cool before slicing so the filling has time to firm up.
