It is peak peach season right now, and the absolute best time for recipes made with these succelent little orbs of juicy, sweet goodness. Nature’s candy, I tell you. And since it seems I copy everything she does, I knew I had to make my very own peach pie when Kristin mentioned she was making one the other night. It always helps to have friends who are far more Martha Stewart-esque than you, you know? They’re a good influence. Stay tuned for the same recipe from her later this week! But if you’re planning out the week’s meals and treats, be sure and add this easy and crowd pleasing pie to your agenda. Matthew was rendered speechless upon first spoonfuls of pie and ice cream yesterday afternoon. If caveman grunts are any indication of how delicious it turned out, I think it probably scored a ten. ;)
Organic Peach Pie
*organic peaches are not necessary, but they are the one fruit I almost exclusively buy in organic due to the high pesticide content.
Pillsbury package of 2 crusts
4-6 cups sliced peaches - about 6-8 medium ones (no need to peel them)
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp lemon or lime juice
1 TBS butter or margarine
Preheat oven to 425. Place bottom pastry crust in pan. Mix flour, sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Stir in peaches and lemon or lime juice. Turn into pie crust, and dot with butter. Cover with top pastry. Seal, flute, and cut a couple slits in the center. Cover edges with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake 15 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown, and fruit mixture is starting to bubble. Cool on wire rack. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, and enjoy!
Oh wow, I'm almost definitely going to try this. I bet it would be amazing with ice cream! x

ReplyDeletegirl, i am in love with the photo of the pie in the oven!
ReplyDeleteI'm convinced! There is nothing more tasty than fresh fruit. Unless it comes in the form of pie and ice cream ;) Sounds so good right now!

ReplyDeleteI'm so glad the pie was a hit!!! (and easy to boot! Didn't I tell ya?) Love that oven pic so much...what a glamorous perspective!
ReplyDeleteI've given up trying to live a unique life I think. We are just simply the same person. 'Cept you're shorter...and cuter. :-) But everything is better when you share it with a friend (even side ponytails), so I'm not complaining. Can't thank you enough for this weekend Jen. There are no words to express my gratitude.
Talk to you soon...
OMG! This looks so yummy. I want to go home to bake a pie now. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWe are going to grill some peaches tonight! I saw a few "recipes" on Pinterest and was sucked in. Yesterday we did artichokes and balsamic/brown sugar strawberries!! Soooooo good.
ReplyDeleteBut I am really excited about the peaches.
Great recipe, I am going to try this soon :)
ReplyDeleteget in my belly!
ReplyDeleteI have such a thing for peaches at the moment which is good considering the abundance of fresh and sweet peach's here in Cyprus. Might have to give this recipe a whirl this weekend :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious. I love baking, so I'm really looking forward to trying this recipe out.
ReplyDeleteJust a note on the whole organic thing, there are actually extremely limited FDA regulation on what can be declared certified organic meaning that in the end it doesn't really tell you as much about how the food was grown as you would like to think. I still buy organic, with the idea that it is usually the best choice of some not-so-great options, but while still keeping that in mind. I highly recommend farmer's markets because it is the best way to interact with those growing your food, so that you have a better idea what actually goes into growing it. Even then, it is still hard to ever really KNOW. I realize this is totally NOT what the post is about, but I thought it might be something you'd find interesting if you don't already know.
