Best 6 Freeze Ahead Peach Pie Filling Recipes

FROZEN PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Wash and pit the peaches. You can peel them if you like, but I never bother. Mash half into a small bowl and slice the remaining half.
• Whisk together the sugar, salt, smoked paprika, and tapioca flour in a medium bowl. Add the mashed peaches and stir in the mango juice. Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes, then fold in the sliced peaches.
• Line a 9-inch pie plate with aluminum foil. Place the peach mixture into the foil and freeze until solid, 6 to 8 hours.
• Once the filling is frozen, remove from the aluminum foil and wrap in plastic wrap and store in a freezer bag for up to 3 months.
• To bake: Heat oven to 325°F.
• Unroll first piece of dough and place into a 9-inch pie pan, making sure the dough reaches to the lip of the pie pan. Trim excess, if necessary. Prick the bottom and sides with a fork and set aside.
• Unroll second piece of dough and cut into 1 1/8-inch-wide strips using a pizza cutter or sharp paring knife; you should end up with 9 to 10 strips.
• Remove the frozen pie filling from the freezer and place into the prepared dough in the pan.
• Build your lattice by laying 4 to 5 strips of dough in horizontal stripes across the top of the pie. Weave the remaining strips vertically into the horizontal strips, creating a basket-weave lattice. Crimp around the edge with a fork. If you refrigerated the lattice beforehand, place on top of the pie and leave at room temperature for 10 minutes before continuing.
• Lightly brush the edge of the crust with the egg yolk and place pie on the bottom rack of the oven. Bake until the pie bubbles around the edges, about 1 hour 15 minutes
• Place the pie on a rack and cool to room temperature before serving, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

FREEZER PEACH PIE FILLING AND PIE FREEZING METHOD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Using a paring knife score the peaches with an X into the skins only.
• Carefully drop the peaches into the boiling water; for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon remove the peaches to a large bowl of ice water for 1 minute (the skins should slip off easily, if not place them back into the boiling water for 30 seconds).
• Slice the peaches then put them into a large bowl; sprinkle with Fruit Fresh and sugar; toss to combine.
• Stir in the tapioca, lemon juice and salt; mix well to combine.
• Line 4 foil pie plates with heavy foil or freezer paper, placing a piece of plastic wrap over the foil.
• Put 4-5 cups of peach filling into each pan, then loosely fold wrapping around the pie; freeze until firm.
• When the filling is frozen solid remove from pans and wrap tightly, then return to freezer until ready to use.
• ON PIE BAKING DAY; for each pie place one frozen pie filling in a unbaked 9-inch pie shell, then add in 4 tablespoons butter pieces (1/4-cup) then sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.

• Bake for about 50-60 minutes in a 375 degree oven.

PEACH PIE WITH FROZEN PEACHES

Steps:

• Allow pie crusts to sit at room temperature about 15 minutes if recommended by manufacturer.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Remove plastic packaging from pie crusts and gently unroll one piece on a floured work surface. Dust the dough with flour on both sides. Fit the dough inside a 9-inch pie pan, shaping and gently stretching it to the top edge of the pie pan.
• Stir together frozen peach slices, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl (see note.)
• Pour peach mixture into the unbaked pie crust and gently level out the top of the peaches with the back of a spoon. Peach slices will still be frozen.
• Gently unroll the second piece of dough on the floured work surface. Fit the second dough circle on top of the peaches, and allow an even amount to hang over the edge of the pan, all the way around.
• Brush the top of the pie with beaten egg, discarding any excess egg. Fold the edges of the top crust under, using the edge of the pan for a guide. Press the top crust and the bottom crust together to form a crimped edge. Lightly cover the crimped edge of the pie with strips of aluminum foil or with pie crust shields, to prevent over-browning.
• Cut several slits in the top crust with a sharp knife. Sprinkle sparkling sugar over the crust.
• Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until the pie is browned and bubbly, about 1 hour.
• Cool on a rack about 30 minutes and serve warm.
