Spiced Peach Pie With Lattice Crust Recipes

Steps:

• For crust:
• Whisk first 5 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Add butter and shortening and rub in with fingertips until mixture resembles very coarse meal. Mix in 4 tablespoons ice water. Mix in more water by tablespoonfuls if dough is dry, tossing until moist clumps form. Gather dough into ball. Divide dough into 2 pieces, 1 slightly larger than the other. Flatten into disks; wrap and chill at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
• For filling:
• Mix sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice and spices in large bowl. Bring medium saucepan of water to boil. Drop in 3 peaches at a time; blanch 1 minute. Transfer peaches to bowl of cold water. Using small sharp knife, peel 1 peach. Cut peach in half; discard pit and slice thinly. Stir peach slices into sugar mixture. Repeat with remaining peaches. Let filling stand until juices form, at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll out larger dough disk on lightly floured surface to 13- to 14-inch round. Transfer to 9-inch-diameter deep-dish pie dish. Roll out smaller dough disk on lightly floured surface to 11-inch round. Using ruler as aid, cut dough into 1/2-inch-wide strips.
• Spoon filling into dough-lined dish. Arrange some of dough strips atop pie, spacing 3/4 inch apart. Form lattice by arranging more dough strips at right angle to first strips, spacing 3/4 inch apart. Trim overhang of bottom crust and lattice strips to 3/4 inch. Fold under and crimp edge decoratively.
• Bake pie until crust is golden and filling bubbles thickly, covering edge of crust with foil if browning too quickly, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Cool pie to room temperature before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Stir peaches, 1/2 cup sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Let sit for 20 to 30 minutes. Strain accumulated juices into a saucepan and return strained peaches to bowl.
• Bring juices in saucepan to a boil; reduce heat to medium-high, and cook until mixture thickens to a syrup, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Whisk 1/2 cup sugar, flour, and cornstarch together in a bowl. Stir lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon into peaches; add flour mixture and toss to coat. Pour peach syrup over peach mixture and stir.
• Roll out half the pastry to fit a 10-inch pie plate. Place bottom crust in pie plate. Pour peach filling into pie shell, tap pie plate against a surface to settle filling, and dot with butter.
• Roll remaining crust into an 11-inch circle and cut into 1-inch strips using a paring knife or pastry wheel.
• Lay 5 strips of pie crust over the top of the pie. Weave remaining pastry dough strips through to form a lattice top. Fold the ends of the lattice strips under the bottom crust and crimp the crust. Brush cream over the top and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and bubbling, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool completely before slicing.

Steps:

• Drain syrup from peaches into a 2-cup measuring cup. Add enough water to measure 1-1/3 cups. Chop peaches and set aside. , In a large saucepan, combine the syrup, brown sugar, ginger and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook and stir for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. , Discard cinnamon stick. Stir gelatin into syrup mixture until dissolved. Add peaches. Refrigerate until partially set, about 40 minutes., In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter and nutmeg until smooth. Spread over the bottom and up the sides of the baked crust. Pour gelatin mixture over cream cheese layer. , Chill until serving. Spread with whipped topping. Serve with mint if desired.

Steps:

• Make crust:
• Blend flour, sugar and salt in processor. Add butter and lard; cut in using on/off turns until fat is reduced to pea-size pieces, about 25 turns. Using on/off turns, blend in 3/4 cup buttermilk until dough just comes together in moist clumps, adding more buttermilk if dough is dry. Gather dough into ball. Divide into 2 pieces, 1 slightly larger than the other. Flatten each into disk. Wrap disks in plastic; chill at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Make filling:
• Mix 3/4 cup sugar and next 4 ingredients in large bowl. Cook peaches in pot of boiling water 30 seconds. Transfer to bowl of cold water; cool. Peel, halve and pit peaches. Slice peaches into bowl with sugar mixture; toss to coat. Let filling stand until juices form, stirring often, about 20 minutes.
• Place 1 rack in center and 1 rack at lowest position in oven; preheat to 400°F. Roll out larger dough disk on floured surface to 12- to 13-inch round. Transfer dough to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Trim overhang to 3/4 inch. Mound filling in dish; dot with butter. Roll out second disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Gently roll up dough onto rolling pin; drape dough over filling. Pinch overhang and edge of top crust together. Fold edge under. Cut several slits in top crust. Crimp edge. Brush pie with beaten egg; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Place pie on center rack in oven. Bake 50 minutes. Place baking sheet on lowest rack to catch drippings. Continue to bake pie until crust is brown and juices bubble thickly through slits, covering very loosely with foil if top browns too quickly, about 20 minutes. Cool on rack 1 hour. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• For crust:
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• For filling:
• In a medium bowl, stir to combine all filling ingredients. Set aside for 15 minutes.
• For crust:
• In a large bowl, stir together pie crust mix and 1/3 cup chilled peach nectar until dough forms a ball. Split dough in half, and form into 2 disks.
• On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll dough 1 1/2-inches larger than an upside-down 9-inch pie pan. Fold dough in half and unfold over pie pan. Press onto bottom of pan.
• Fill pie shell with peach filling mixture; set aside.
• Roll out remaining dough and place over filled pie shell. Pinch the edges of the pie together or crimp with a fork. Trim away any excess dough.
• Lightly beat egg with 1 tablespoon peach nectar or water to make egg wash. Use a pastry brush to lightly brush top of pie with egg wash. Sprinkle with sugar. Cut slit in center to vent pie.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes or until crust is golden and filling is bubbling through vent. If edges get too brown, cover edges with foil to prevent burning.
• Cool before slicing.

Steps:

• For the Crust: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. Use your fingers to break up butter and cut it in, until mixture resembles mostly coarse meal with a bunch of hazelnut-size pieces remaining. Drizzle with ice water and stir with a fork until most of flour is moistened (mixture will still be shaggy and not at all formed into a dough). If there is dry flour remaining, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a piece will hold together when pressed between your fingers.
• Turn dough out onto a clean surface and gather into a mound. Using the heel of your hand, smear dough away from you, working your way down to create long layers of butter. Fold dough over onto itself, as if closing a book. Repeat twice more. (There should be plenty of large, flat pieces of butter visible in dough.)
• Divide dough into two pieces, one about 12 ounces, the other about 1 pound. Pat smaller piece into a round and larger into a rectangle. Wrap each loosely in plastic, then use a rolling pin to flatten and finish compacting (use plastic rather than your hands to maneuver dough-the less body heat transferred, the better). Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
• For the Pie Filling: Prepare an ice-water bath and bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cut an X in flower (non-stem) end of each peach. Drop in boiling water and cook just until skins begin to peel back, about 30 seconds. Transfer to ice-water bath, then peel and pit peaches. Cut into 1/2-inch wedges (you should have 7 to 8 cups).
• In a large bowl, stir together sugar and vanilla seeds, then add peaches, lemon juice, and salt; stir to combine. Let stand 30 minutes, then stir in cornstarch. Set a colander over a heatproof bowl; transfer peaches to colander to drain. Transfer liquid in bowl to a small saucepan, then transfer peaches to bowl. Bring liquid to a boil over medium-high heat, then cook, whisking constantly, until thickened to the consistency of loose pudding, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir into peaches; let stand 15 minutes.
• Assembly: On a lightly floured surface, roll out smaller piece of dough into a 13-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Fill with peach mixture. Roll larger piece of dough out into an approximately 12-by-16-inch rectangle, a scant 1/8 inch thick. Using a pastry wheel or large knife, cut into 1 1/2-to-2-inch-wide strips.
• Place 6 strips atop pie, leaving a little space between them. Fold back every other strip, and lay a strip across center of pie, perpendicular to original strips. Unfold folded strips, then fold back remaining strips. Lay another horizontal strip across pie. Repeat folding and unfolding strips to weave a lattice pattern. Repeat on remaining side. Press edges together to seal. Trim dough to a 1-inch overhang, fold under, and crimp as desired. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush top of chilled pie with beaten egg. Place on middle rack of oven and slide a baking sheet or a piece of aluminum foil onto rack below to catch any overflow. Bake 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 375°F and bake until bubbling in center and top and bottom crusts are browned, about 1 hour, 30 minutes more.
• Let cool completely on a wire rack, at least 4 hours. Pie is best eaten the day it's made, but can be stored, lightly covered, at room temperature, up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Drain syrup from peaches into a 2-cup measuring cup.
• Add enough water to measure 1 1/3 cups.
• Chop peaches and set aside.
• In a saucepan, combine the syrup, brown sugar, ginger, and cinnamon.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and cook and stir for 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat.
• Stir gelatin into syrup mixture until dissolved.
• Add peaches.
• Refrigerate until partially set, about 40 minutes.
• In a bowl, blend cream cheese and nutmeg.
• Spread over the bottom and up the sides of the crust.
• Pour gelatin mixture over cream cheese layer.
• Spread with whipped topping.
• Chill until serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Slowly sprinkle flour into a large bowl, a tiny bit at a time. Mix in sugar and salt. Cut in shortening until sort of smooth.
• Mix milk and oil together in a measuring cup. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour oil mixture in slowly, stirring to combine.
• Separate dough smoothly into 2 balls, trying not to knead. Chill for 30 minutes.
• Roll out dough balls into 10-inch circles. Press 1 circle into a 9-inch pie pan as evenly as possible, but don't worry about messy edges. Reserve remaining circle for the top.
• Slice all but one peach into coarse chunks, removing skins as you go. Don't worry about removing all the skin. Toss with brown sugar, white sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Remove 2 1/2 spoonfuls of liquid from the bottom so it isn't soggy.
• Mix flour, cornstarch, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, cardamom, allspice, cayenne, and salt together in a separate bowl.
• Mix peaches with flour mixture until combined. Pour into the pie crust. If it's too much liquid, hold some back. Slice the remaining peach very thinly and lay in a pinwheel design over the filling. Dot butter over the top.
• Lay the top crust gently over the top. Dip a fork in the beaten egg and use it crimp the edges to seal. Brush remaining egg over the top. Sprinkle with 1 pinch cinnamon and cut a few slits in the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Increase temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and continue to bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let cool at least 1 1/2 hours before slicing and serving.
