WHITE PEACH PIE RECIPE - (4.8/5)

Steps:

• Buy white peaches at Hay Day or Korean Market. Buy package of pie shells at Grand Union or Stop & Shop. Pit peaches and cut into large (1 inch or more) chunks; DO NOT PEEL. Mix about 8 cups peaches with 1/8 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar and 1/3 of the lemon juice. Put mixture in pie shell, pile high and sprinkle with 1/8 cup flour and 1/4 cup sugar....(famous Westport hostess recommends putting all flour and sugar on top, but...trust me on this!!) Dot with 3 tablespoons butter. Repeat process twice and make two more pies. Bake at 400 degrees for 50 minutes, OR 425 degrees for 45 minutes, OR 450 degrees for 15 minutes followed by 350 degrees for 30 minutes...(take your pick!) Let cool (top of pie will be singed like toast). Give one to someone you owe; one to someone you don't, and eat the third one yourself with all the ice cream.

OLD-FASHIONED PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Chill: Chill the assembled pie in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F: Place an oven rack in the bottom third of the oven. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil to catch any pie leakage. Whisk the egg and tablespoon of milk together.
• Bake the pie: Remove the chilled pie from the fridge and brush the top with the egg-milk mixture. Sprinkle with sanding sugar. Place the pie on the prepared baking sheet. Bake the pie in the bottom third of the oven for about 1 hour, or until the filling is bubbling in the center of the pie.

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.

PERFECT PEACH PIE

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.

SUGAR-FREE PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare pastry. Mix peaches and lemon juice. Stir together sweetener, flour and cinnamon; mix with peaches. Turn into pastry-lined pie pan; dot with margarine. Cover with top crust which has slits cut in it; seal and flute.
• Cover edge with 2-3" strip of aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil last 15 minutes of baking.
• Bake 35-45 minutes until crust is brown and juice begins to bubble through slits in crust.

PEACH MELBA PIE

Steps:

• Combine both flours, the butter and a pinch of salt in the bowl of a food processor and blitz to a fine crumb. Add cold water 1 tbsp at a time (4-5 tbsp), pulsing until the mix starts to cling together. Tip out and knead with your hands (add more water if required) to make a pliable pastry dough. Split in half and flatten each portion. Wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hr.
• Remove a disc of pastry from the fridge, unwrap and, on a generously floured surface, roll it out to a large, circle, wider than the pie dish. Transfer to a floured baking sheet and chill for about 10 mins. Repeat with the remaining disc.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Stone and quarter the peaches. Cut each in two, and toss in a bowl with the lemon juice, cornflour, vanilla extract, sugar, honey and raspberries. Add the butter in small pieces.
• Using a floured rolling pin, drape one of the pastry sheets across a 24cm pie dish. Let it sink in and, holding the edges, lift and tuck into the corners. Prick the pastry all over and fill with the peach mixture.
• Drape the second pastry sheet over the filling. Press together the top and bottom crusts, crimping with your fingers to seal, and trim off any excess. Cut three 8cm slits across the top crust, brush with the beaten egg and sprinkle over the demerara sugar. Bake for 55 mins to 1 hr until the crust is deeply golden and the filling is bubbling out. Cool for about 10 mins before serving with cream or vanilla ice cream.

GEORGIA WHITE PEACH PIE

Steps:

• First preheat your oven to 425 degrees! Make sure your pastry dough is room temp and ready to go.
• In a large bowl combine your sugar, flour and nutmeg. Add in your peeled & sliced peaches and gently stir to coat all of your peaches. I use my hands, this way you can tell what needs a little more attention. I also use firm peaches. They will soften up just right!!
• Place one pasty sheet in the bottom of your pie dish. Cut up your butter into small pieces and place them all over the bottom of your pasty.
• Pour all of your peach mixture on top of the butter in the pie dish. Spread it out to evenly distribute. Take your second pastry sheet and place on top making sure to crimp the top edges with the bottom edges. Don't forget to make a few vent holes in the top of the upper crust.
• Cover the top of the crust with a tablespoon of sugar, just sprinkle it evenly over the top.
• Bake for 45 minutes. You can cover your edges with a little foil or a ring, depends on your oven and how you like your edges. I usually leave mine on for most of the baking cycle.
