Peach Pie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 pie crusts, unbaked (recipe here)
- 6 medium peaches
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1 cup sugar
- pinch salt
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Wash peaches, remove the seed, then peel and slice.
2. In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches, sugar, flour, salt, and lemon juice.
3. Pour the mixture into a prepared pie crust, and dot the top of the peaches with a little butter.
4. Place the top crust onto the peaches in the pie pan. Seal the edges, then cut a few slits in the top of the pie crust to let steam escape.
5. Sprinkle some sugar on the top of the pie crust.
6. Bake for 35-45 minutes.
Once your peach pie is cooled and ready to serve, top it with vanilla ice cream and a whipped cream dollop. And if you want to get your little ones into baking, have them help you mix the ingredients or prepare the pie crust. They'll have a memory that will last them for a lifetime, and potentially pass it on to their children in the future. Enjoy!
