Equipment

  • 9-inch pie dish
  • large bowl
  • wire rack

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 2 store-bought pie crusts
  • 1 egg

Filling

  • 6 cups peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces

Topping (Optional)

  • 1 tablespoon Turbinado sugar

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a 9-inch pie dish by gently placing one pie crust in it.
  • In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice, ensuring the peaches are evenly coated.

Assembly

  • Pour the peach filling into the prepared pie crust, scattering small pieces of butter over the top of the peaches.
  • Place the second pie crust over the filling, crimping the edges to seal and cutting several slits on top for steam to escape.
  • Whisk the egg and brush it over the top crust, then sprinkle with Turbinado sugar if desired, for a golden, crunchy finish.

Baking

  • Bake the pie for 15 minutes at 400°F (200°C), then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and continue baking for 30-40 minutes more
  • Cool the pie on a wire rack for at least 2-3 hours before serving to allow the filling to set properly.

Notes

For extra flavor, try adding a splash of vanilla extract to the peach filling. If your pie crust edges are browning too quickly, cover them with aluminum foil. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert. You can also use frozen peaches; just make sure to thaw and drain them thoroughly before mixing with the other ingredients. The secrets to a delicious peach pie include using fresh, ripe peaches, a good balance of sugars, a hint of spice, a flaky crust, and allowing it to cool completely before serving.
