FREEZER PEACH PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Toss together fresh peaches, sugar, cornstarch, ground ginger, ground cardamom, and ground cinnamon in a large bowl, making sure spices are distributed throughout. Line a 9-inch pie pan with aluminum foil, and transfer peach mixture to the pie pan. Cover and freeze 8 to 12 hours. Remove frozen peach filling from pan, discard foil, and place filling in a ziplock plastic freezer bag. Return to freezer until ready to use. Peach filling will keep up to 6 months in the freezer.
• To make pie, preheat oven to 450°F. Unroll 1 piecrust, and fit into the same 9-inch pie pan. Fold edges under, and crimp. Place frozen filling on crust.
• Unroll second piecrust on a lightly floured surface, and cut into 8 (1-inch-wide) strips. Arrange strips in a lattice design over filling; gently press ends of strips, sealing to bottom piecrust. Shield crust edge with foil to prevent the crust from burning.
• Bake in preheated oven 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F, leaving edges covered with foil, and continue to bake until top crust is brown and filling is bubbly, about 40 minutes.

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.

PEACH HAND PIES

Steps:

• Combine the peaches, water, vanilla seeds and pod, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook until syrupy and the peaches are soft and just beginning to break down, 12 to 18 minutes. (Add more water if the mixture is too thick.) Discard the vanilla pod and mash the peaches; let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Gather the pie dough into 2 small compact squares; roll out each into a 12-inch square. Cut each in half, then cut each half into thirds to make twelve 4-by-6-inch rectangles.
• Arrange 6 rectangles on the baking sheet and top each with 3 tablespoons of the peach compote. Cover each with another rectangle of dough; crimp the edges with a fork to seal. Cut a small vent into the center of each top; brush with the beaten egg. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Combine 2 1/2 pounds peach wedges with 3/4 cup light brown sugar, the juice of 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Pour into pie shell; dot with 4 tablespoons butter.
• Perfect All-Butter Piecrust
• Pulse 3 1/2 cups flour, 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Add 1 diced stick cold butter; process until combined. Add 2 more diced sticks cold butter; pulse three times, or until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 1 tablespoon white or cider vinegar. Gradually pour in 1/3 cup ice water, pulsing about four times until combined. Turn out onto a clean surface and press into a cohesive dough without overworking (you should see bits of butter). Wrap in plastic wrap and press into a 1-inch-thick disk; refrigerate at least 1 hour before rolling out.
• How to Make a Pie
• Divide the chilled dough in half; roll 1 piece into a 12-inch, 1/8-inch-thick circle on a lightly floured surface (refrigerate the other piece).
• Roll the dough onto a rolling pin, then unroll it into a 9-inch glass pie plate, letting it hang over the edge; add filling (see options above).
• Roll out the other piece of dough and place over the filling; press the crust edges together and trim, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Roll up or pinch the overhang to seal.
• Place a foil-lined baking sheet on a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 450 degrees. Wrap an oiled, wide band of foil around the pie edge to protect the crust. Make slashes in the top of the crust; chill for 30 minutes.
• Reduce the oven to 400 degrees. Bake the pie for 30 minutes. Remove the foil band, brush the crust with heavy cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes; cool before slicing.

DOUBLE-CRUST PEACH PIE WITH FROZEN PEACHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Coat a 9-inch pie pan with 1/2 tablespoon melted butter and dust completely with 1 tablespoon flour; shake off the excess.
• Line the bottom and sides of the pie pan with 1 pie crust. Poke the bottom and sides of the dough with a fork to provide venting. Brush the edges of the crust with remaining melted butter.
• Place sliced peaches in a large bowl and pour off excess liquid.
• Mix 1/3 cup flour, sugar, pectin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a separate bowl. Pour over the peaches and mix gently.
• Pour into the pie crust, and dot with 4 teaspoons butter. Cover with the second pie crust and fold the edges under. Flute the edges to seal or press the edges with the tines of a fork. Poke the top crust gently with a fork 6 or so times and cut a modest center hole to vent steam. Cover the edges of the pie with strips of aluminum foil to prevent excess browning or burning.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until crust is brown and the juice begins to bubble through the vents, 40 to 45 minutes more. Cool before serving.

FROZEN PEACH MELBA PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly spray a deep dish pie plate with cooking spray.
• Finely crush graham crackers & place in a small bowl. Add preserves and mix well.
• Press crumb mixture evenly in the bottom and up the sides of pie plate. Bake for 12 minutes. Cool completely.
• Place raspberry yogurt in a bowl. Fold in 1 cup of the whipped topping and spread over bottom of crust. Reserving some raspberries for garnish, sprinkle remaining raspberries over yogurt mixture.
• Peel 1 peach and remove pit. Chop coarsely.
• Place peach yogurt in a bowl & fold in 1 cup of whipped topping & the chopped peach. Spread over raspberries.
• Freeze until firm, about 6 hours or overnight,.
• When ready to serve, let pie stand at room temp for 20 minutes.
• Peel remaining peach, pit and slice into 16 thin pieces. Arrange over pie top in an overlapping pattern, leaving center open.
• Pipe remaining whipped topping in the center and around edges of pie. Garnish with remaining raspberries.
• Cut, serve and enjoy!
• Note: Cook time does not include freezing time.

PEACH CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425; prepare pie shell: Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and line it with pie weights (or a perforated nesting pie pan) to help the shell holds its shape; bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until it's lightly browned. Reduce oven heat to 400°F.
• Allow the crust to cool slightly before removing the weights or nested pan -- if the crust still managed to bubble, just prick it gently with a fork; it'll deflate as it cools.
• Prepare the filling: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour and salt; add the eggs, cream, rum, and vanilla, and whisk together well.
• Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, or the time it takes to peel and dice the peaches; whisk again just before pouring the custard into the pie shell.
• (This resting time allows the sugar to dissolve.) Pour the custard into the pre-baked pie shell, and spoon the peaches on top.
• Some will sink; that's OK, they're supposed to.
• Use a piecrust shield or aluminum foil to gently cover the outer edge of the crust.
• Bake the pie in a 400°F oven for 20 minutes.
• Make the topping while the pie bakes.
• Gingered Streusel Topping:If you have a food processor, just place all the topping ingredients into the work bowl and process, using the steel blade, until crumbs begin to form.
• To make by hand, whisk together the minced crystallized ginger, sugar, and flour, then stir in the melted butter.
• After the pie has baked for 20 minutes (it will have just begun to set up around the edges), carefully sprinkle the streusel over the top, leaving the pie crust shield in place.
• Bake for another 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pie has puffed, the streusel is very slightly browned at the edges, and/or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pie reads about 160°F.
• Remove the pie from the oven, and cool it on a rack for about 2 hours before serving.
• Refrigerate any leftover pie.
