SUMMER IS HERE TRIPLE BERRY PEACH PIE



Summer is Here Triple Berry Peach Pie image

The best part of summer is the fresh, juicy fruit available in grocery stores or farmers' markets. This pie is my own creation after visiting the market and seeing beautiful berries and peaches for sale. After experimenting with different fruits and sugar levels, I have put together a fresh berry and peach pie that just screams 'summer is here!'

Time 1h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
1 egg white, lightly beaten
3 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted, and sliced
1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and large berries cut in half
1 pint fresh blueberries
2 (6 ounce) containers fresh raspberries
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons cornstarch
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9 inch pie plate with half of the dough and brush with half of the beaten egg white.
  • Combine the sliced peaches, strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries in a large bowl; set aside. Mix the flour, cornstarch, brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, and nutmeg together. Gently fold the flour mixture into the fruit, taking care not to crush the berries. Transfer the fruit mixture into the pastry-lined pie plate. The filling will be piled high but will cook down. Dot with butter.
  • Top the filled pie with a lattice crust or a full top crust (cut decorative slits in the crust to allow steam to escape). Brush the top crust or lattice with the remaining egg white. Combine 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1 tablespoon sugar and sprinkle the mixture on the crust. Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch drips.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 45 to 60 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the pie set for 30 minutes; transfer to a cooling rack. The filling will be loose if served warm, but will tighten up when the pie is completely cooled.

Tips and Techniques for Crafting the Ideal Peach Cherry Pie: A Comprehensive Guide

1. Selecting Perfect Fruits: Choose ripe, juicy peaches and cherries for optimal flavor. For a balanced sweetness, opt for a mix of tart cherries and sweeter varieties like Bing or Rainier. 2. Perfecting the Crust: Opt for a flaky, buttery crust made from scratch or use store-bought to save time. For a golden-brown crust, brush it with milk or melted butter before baking. 3. Creating a Sweet-Tart Filling: Combine plump peaches and cherries with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and aromatic spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for a filling that strikes a harmonious balance between sweetness and tartness. 4. Preventing Soggy Crust: To avoid a soggy bottom crust, sprinkle a layer of flour or bread crumbs onto the pie plate before adding your filling. This trick helps absorb excess moisture. 5. Achieving a Lattice Crust: Master the art of creating a lattice crust for a visually appealing pie. Use strips of dough to weave a intricate pattern over the filling, allowing steam to escape during baking. 6. Perfect Baking Techniques: Bake the pie in a preheated oven until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Use a pie shield or foil to protect the crust edges from over-browning if needed. 7. Cooling and Serving: Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set and the flavors to meld together. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
