Hill Country Peach Custard Pie Food

PEACH CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Prepare the Crust: Pulse flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a food processor until combined, 3 or 4 times. Add butter and shortening, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 times. Drizzle in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse until dough begins to clump together. Gather dough into a ball, and flatten into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap, and chill 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll dough into a 12-inch circle (about ⅛ inch thick) on a lightly floured work surface. Fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold edges under, and crimp. Prick bottom and sides with a fork. Line dough with parchment paper; fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove weights and parchment paper; bake until lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, and cool piecrust completely, about 30 minutes.
• Prepare the Filling: Whisk together sugar, heavy cream, butter, flour, salt, ginger, and eggs in a medium bowl until completely smooth. Place peaches in cooled piecrust, and pour sugar-cream mixture evenly over peaches.
• Bake pie at 375°F until almost set in the middle, 40 to 45 minutes, covering edges with aluminum foil during the last 10 to 15 minutes, if needed, to prevent excessive browning. Transfer pie to a wire rack. Cool completely, about 2 hours, before serving.

COUNTRY PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Add 1/2 cup ice water and pulse until the dough just starts to come together. Divide the dough between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and form each into a disk; wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Make the filling: Toss the peaches in a bowl with 3/4 cup sugar, the flour, lemon juice and spices.
• Lightly dust a large piece of parchment paper with flour. Roll out 1 piece of the dough into a 12-inch round on the parchment. Ease the dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Add the filling, mounding it slightly in the center; dot with the butter and refrigerate. Roll out the second piece of dough into a 12-inch round and cut it into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Lay half of the strips on the pie in one direction, leaving about 1 inch of space between each strip. Lay the remaining strips on top, crossing them diagonally to make a lattice pattern (no need to weave); trim the edges of the strips, leaving a small overhang. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge of the crust with your fingers.
• Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water and brush on the crust edge and lattice top. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven. Put a baking sheet on the rack and preheat to 425 degrees F. Put the pie on the hot baking sheet and bake 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F and continue baking until the pie is golden and the filling is bubbly, 50 minutes to 1 hour. (Cover loosely with foil if the top is browning too quickly.) Transfer to a rack to cool completely before slicing.

PEACH-CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the crust: Roll out pate brisee to a 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate, and trim crust to a 1-inch overhang using kitchen shears. Fold edges under, and press to seal using the tines of a fork. Prick bottom of pie all over with fork. Freeze for 15 minutes.
• Line crust with parchment, leaving an overhang on all sides. Fill completely with dried beans or rice. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven; remove beans and parchment. Bake crust until bottom is lightly golden, about 11 minutes more. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Cut a small X into the bottom of each peach. Boil for 1 minute; transfer to ice-water bath. Let cool slightly. Peel and pit peaches. Halve 7 of the 8 halves to form wedges.
• Whisk together eggs, sugar, butter, flour, and salt. Pour filling into pie crust. Place peach half in center, cut side down, and surround with wedges.
• Bake for 45 minutes. (Tent crust with a foil ring after 15 minutes.) Transfer to a wire rack; let cool for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
