PERFECT PEACH PIE



Perfect Peach Pie image

Eat a perfect peach under the summer sun and you'll experience the fruit at its messy, dripping, sugar-bright best. Rinse your chin and understand that no melon, apricot or blackberry can compete. But how often does this happen? For most of us, a great and truly perfect peach is a rare event. We can expect but one or two a season, for all our trying. Enter the pie. A peach pie can elevate good peaches to excellence and great ones to the sublime. Even a peach pie made with frozen fruit is a terrific thing. The addition of sugar helps; so, too, do a dash of lemon juice and a light sprinkle of nutmeg, which offers a slight bitterness to offset the sweet. Add a crown of vanilla ice cream for a perfect diner-style à la mode effect.

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 cups or 300 grams all-purpose flour
12 tablespoons or 169 grams unsalted butter, cold, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Yolk of 1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1/4 cup water, from 3/4 cup ice water
White of 1 egg, beaten
Pinch granulated sugar
6 or 7 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced, approximately 5 cups
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup or 30 grams all-purpose flour
Pinch of ground nutmeg

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.

HOMEMADE PEACH PIE



Homemade Peach Pie image

This Homemade Peach Pie is a bit of summer paradise on your plate! Flakey buttery crust is filled with a luscious sweet peach filling that is perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Provided by Alyssa Rivers

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
6-8 Tablespoons ice water
5 cups 6-8 ripe but firm peaches (peaches, sliced (can be peeled or unpeeled))
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg yolk
2 Tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Add flour, sugar, salt and cubed butter to a stand mixer with the paddle attachment. Mix until the butter resembles pea shaped crumbs.
  • Add water to the dough 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough forms a ball.
  • Divide the ball into two balls and shape each into a round flat disk. Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour or overnight to chill.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Peel and slice your peaches and all them to a colander to drain the excess juices for about 30 minutes.
  • While your peaches drain, prep your bottom pie crust in your pie pan. Place in the fridge until you're ready to add your filling.
  • In a bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Pour your peaches into a large bowl and add the dry ingredients on top and toss together. Add the lemon juice and vanilla extract and mix again. Pour filling into prepared pie pan.
  • Layer the top crust over the pie and crimp the edges to seal.
  • In a small bowl, use a fork to mix the egg yolk with the water to make your egg wash. Use a pastry brush to brush it across the top of the pie crust. If you'd like, you can sprinkle granulated sugar over the top of the egg wash.
  • Place the prepped pie on a sheet pan (to catch any run-over juices) and bake for about 40-50 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and the bottom crust is golden brown. If the top crust is getting too dark, you can use aluminum foil on top to prevent it from browning further.
  • Cool at least 20 minutes before cutting so the filling has time to set up. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (15 ounce) package pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
1 egg, beaten
5 cups sliced peeled peaches
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Line the bottom and sides of a 9 inch pie plate with one of the pie crusts. Brush with some of the beaten egg to keep the dough from becoming soggy later.
  • Place the sliced peaches in a large bowl, and sprinkle with lemon juice. Mix gently. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Pour over the peaches, and mix gently. Pour into the pie crust, and dot with butter. Cover with the other pie crust, and fold the edges under. Flute the edges to seal or press the edges with the tines of a fork dipped in egg. Brush the remaining egg over the top crust. Cut several slits in the top crust to vent steam.
  • Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes, until the crust is brown and the juice begins to bubble through the vents. If the edges brown to fast, cover them with strips of aluminum foil about halfway through baking. Cool before serving. This tastes better warm than hot.

PEACH BREAD PUDDING



Peach Bread Pudding image

Peach bread pudding packed with fresh peaches, your favorite bread, & a homemade spiced custard! Easy bread pudding recipe that comes together fast and has incredible flavor!

Provided by Jessica & Nellie

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 eggs
⅔ c brown sugar
¼ c sugar
½ c sour cream
1 c milk
1 c heavy cream
2 Tbs butter (melted)
2 tsp vanilla
2 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
½ tsp cloves
½ tsp salt
10 slices stale bread (cubed)
4 peaches (2 ½-3 c roughly, peeled and chopped)
2 Tbs brown sugar
2 Tbs sugar
½ c powdered sugar
2 Tbs milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray an 8x10 pan with baking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar and sugar for 4 minutes or until the eggs begin to froth. Whisk in the sour cream.
  • Add in the milk and heavy cream and whisk to emulsify. Next, add in the melted butter and vanilla and whisk to combine.
  • Whisk in the cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt. In the prepared baking pan, layer the bread and peaches.
  • Pour the custard mixture over the bread making sure it is all covered and each piece of bread is soaked.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining brown sugar and sugar. Sprinkle over the surface of the bread mixture.
  • Place into the oven to bake for 45 minutes. If at this point the custard is not fully baked, cover with tinfoil and let bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until it is baked through. To check the doneness of the pudding, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean or with moist crumbs, it is finished baking. If it comes out wet, it is not done yet. This bread pudding will still be jiggly when it is finished baking.
  • Once baked, remove from the oven and place it onto a cooling rack to cool for 15-20 minutes. While the pudding is cooling, make the glaze.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk. Once the bread pudding has cooled to either room temperature or slightly warmer, drizzle the glaze over the top. If you drizzle the glaze on while it's hot, the glaze will melt into the pudding. Serve & enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use ripe peaches: The riper the peaches, the sweeter and more flavorful your pie will be. Look for peaches that are soft to the touch and have a sweet aroma.
  • Peel the peaches: Peeling the peaches will give your pie a smoother texture. To peel a peach, simply score an X into the bottom of the peach and place it in boiling water for 30 seconds. Then, remove the peach from the water and the skin will easily peel off.
  • Slice the peaches: Slice the peaches into thin wedges. This will help them cook evenly in the pie.
  • Add some sugar: To sweeten the peaches, add some sugar to them before adding them to the pie crust. You can also add some spices, such as cinnamon or nutmeg, to enhance the flavor of the peaches.
  • Use a pre-made pie crust: To save time, you can use a pre-made pie crust. However, if you have the time, you can also make your own pie crust from scratch.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature: Baking the pie at a high temperature will help to create a flaky crust and a gooey filling.
  • Let the pie cool before serving: Once the pie is baked, let it cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the filling to set and the crust to firm up.

Conclusion:

Peach pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and juicy filling and flaky crust, peach pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. Follow these tips to make the best peach pie ever.
