Dreamy Peach Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Whisk together the 3/4 cup sugar, the 2 tablespoons flour, and salt. Beat in the sour cream, egg, and vanilla. Stir in the sliced peaches. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue baking until the filling is set, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven.
• Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Whisk together the 1/3 cup flour, 1/3 cup sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Mix in the butter with a fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the pie.
• Return the pie to the preheated oven and bake until topping is golden, about 10 minutes. Let pie cool slightly before slicing.

Steps:

• Make the pie dough. Using your fingertips or the pulse function of a food processor, blend together the flour, butter and salt until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. There should be pebbles of butter throughout the mixture.
• Add egg yolk and vinegar to 1/4 cup ice water, and stir to combine. Drizzle 4 tablespoons of this mixture over the dough, and gently stir or pulse to combine. Gather a golf-ball-size bit of dough, and squeeze to combine. If it does not hold together, add a little more of the liquid, and stir or pulse, then check again. Repeat as necessary.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and gather together into a rough ball. Divide the ball in half with a knife or a pastry scraper, then divide each portion in half again, and again, to create 8 portions. Using the heel of your hand, flatten each portion of dough once or twice to expand the pebbles of butter, then gather the dough together again in one ball. Divide this ball in half.
• Flatten each ball into a 5- or 6-inch disc, one slightly larger than the other. Wrap the discs in plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator for at least 60 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425. Make the pie filling: Combine sliced peaches, lemon juice, sugar and flour in a large bowl, and gently mix to combine. Set aside.
• Take the larger of the pastry discs out of the refrigerator, roll it out on a lightly floured surface and place in a 9-inch pie plate. Add the peaches. Sprinkle them with the ground nutmeg.
• Roll out second disc of pastry. Place on top of filling. Wet edges of the bottom pastry disc with some cold water. Trim pastry, pinch bottom and top edges together and cut a few slits to allow steam to escape from the pie. Brush the egg white on the top, particularly around the edges, and sprinkle with a pinch of granulated sugar.
• Bake the pie for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 375. Cook until peaches bubble and pastry is golden, approximately 45 minutes to an hour.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, and line with parchment paper so that there is a 2-inch overhang on the two long sides.
• Prepare the crust: In a food processor, pulse together graham crackers, pecans, butter and salt until the mixture feels damp and sandy. Pour into the prepared pan and press it down into an even layer.
• Bake until firm and slightly darker in color, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a rack and reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees. You can bake the crust up to 6 hours ahead, or use it while it's still hot.
• Make the filling: Wipe out the food processor, then add cream cheese, cream and ½ cup sugar, and process until very smooth. Add eggs, lemon zest, vanilla and salt, and process until well combined. Pour the cream cheese mixture onto the crust.
• Put the peaches into a medium pot and taste one. If it's very sweet, add 1 tablespoon sugar. If it's on the tart side, add 2 tablespoons sugar. Add lemon juice and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring once or twice, until the sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon peaches and their liquid gently over the cream filling.
• Bake until set and firm, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before cutting and serving. Bars can be made up to 1 day in advance, and will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a few days. Serve directly from the fridge.

Steps:

• Line a 9 inch pie pan with crust. Place peaches in the unbaked pie shell.
• Cream together the sugar and butter or margarine. Add the egg, flour, and vanilla; mix together completely. Spread this mixture over the top of the peaches.
• Bake at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for 1 hour.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl dissolve the peach jello in the boiling water, stirring well until fully dissolved. Add the cold water, stirring well. When ice is melted, then fold in the cool whip. Do not over mix, do not use FROZEN cool whip or the pie will NOT set up.
• Add about 1/2 c. well drained, diced pieces into the filling mix. Spoon into a graham cracker crust. Cover and place in the fridge for at least an hour prior to serving. Serve with additional sliced peaches on the top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim crust to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Arrange peaches in crust. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, flour and salt. Whisk in cream and vanilla until blended; pour over peaches. , Bake until center is almost set, 40-50 minutes. Cover edge loosely with foil during the last 20 minutes if needed to prevent overbrowning. Serve warm; or, for firmer pie, chill before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375. In a 9-inch pie plate, place one of the unrolled pie crusts. (They need to soften a bit at room temperature to make it easy to work with them. Instructions are on package.) I didn't have these crusts available from my small town grocer, so I purchased two ready-made deep dish pie crusts and used one of these as the bottom and one as the top crust.
• 2. Mix together the softened neufchatel cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla until creamy. Pour into the unbaked pie crust.
• 3. In a medium sized bowl, place 1 1/2 cup of blackberries and 1 1/2 cup of peeled and sliced peaches. In a small bowl, mix the sugar and corn starch, and then pour this into the bowl of fruit and mix gently. Add the vanilla and pinch of cinnamon and mix gently.
• 4. Spoon this mixture over the top of the cream cheese filling in the pie plate.
• 5. Place top crust on. Press edges together to seal the top crust and bottom together. Cut off excess. (My mother would place remaining strips in a pan and salt lightly before baking them to make crackers.)
• 6. Spread out the melted butter on top of the pie crust and dust with the cinnamon and nutmeg mixed together.
• 7. Bake for 35 minutes. Crust will be golden brown. If you want a truly decadent dessert, serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, but the neufchatel cream cheese makes it decadent-tasting already while keeping the fat content at a minimum.
