Blueberry Peach Crumb Pie Recipes

BLUEBERRY PEACH PIE.

Steps:

• Prepare my pie crust crust through step 5.
• Make the filling by whisking 3/4 cup granulated sugar, the flour, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and allspice into a large bowl. Using a large wooden spoon or rubber spatula, fold in the peaches and blueberries. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
• On a floured work surface, roll out one of the discs of chilled dough (keep the 2nd in the refrigerator). Turn the dough about a quarter turn after every few rolls until you have a circle 12 inches in diameter. Carefully place the dough into a 9×2 inch pie dish. Tuck it in with your fingers, making sure it is smooth. Spoon the filling into the crust. Cut the butter into tiny pieces and randomly place on top of the filling.
• Remove the other disc of chilled pie dough from the refrigerator. Roll the dough into a circle that is 12 inches diameter. Using a pastry wheel, sharp knife, or pizza cutter, cut strips 1 inch wide. Carefully thread the strips over and under one another, pulling back strips as necessary to weave. Press the edges of the strips into the bottom pie crust edges to seal. Use a small paring knife to trim off excess dough. Crimp the edges with a fork, if desired. (Alternatively, you can simply cover the filling with the 12-inch pie dough circle. Cut slits in the top to form steam vents. Trim and crimp the edges.)
• Brush the lattice top with the beaten egg. A very thin coating - you don't want scrambled eggs on top of your dough. Mix the remaining 1 Tablespoon of granulated sugar with the 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Sprinkle over crust.
• Place the pie onto a large baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Keeping the pie in the oven, turn the temperature down to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes. After the first 20 minutes of bake time, I place a pie crust shield on top of the pie to prevent the edges from browning too quickly.
• Allow the pie to cool for 4 full hours at room temperature before serving. This time allows the filling to thicken up. Cover leftovers tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

PEACH AND BLUEBERRY CRUMB PIE

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch ceramic or glass pie dish.
• For the filling: Finely grind the tapioca in a food processor or spice grinder, about 1 minute. Combine the blueberries, peaches, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, lemon zest and tapioca in a medium bowl.
• Unroll the pie crust and place in the pie dish. Brush the inside with the egg white.
• For the topping: Pulse the almonds, butter, oats, flour and sugar until small chunks form in a food processor.
• Pour the filling into the crust. Crumble the topping over the filling and bake until the top is golden brown, about 55 minutes. If after 30 minutes of baking the edges of the crust begin to brown too quickly, cover the edges of the pie dish with strips of foil. Cool the pie for 30 to 40 minutes before slicing.

BLUEBERRY PEACH CRUMB PIE

Steps:

• For the dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, granulated sugar and salt. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut in the cold butter until pea-size.
• In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a fork until fluffy and pale yellow. Using a fork, mix the eggs into the flour mixture until the dough just comes together. Finish combining the dough with your hands to form a ball, being careful to avoid over-working the dough.
• Cut the ball in half, forming two smaller balls of dough. Gently press down on each to form two equal disks. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
• For the filling: In a bowl, add the peaches, blueberries, brown sugar, flour, lemon juice and zest. Gently mix and set aside for 5 minutes.
• For the topping: In a bowl, add the oats, brown sugar, butter, flour and cinnamon, and mix with your fingers, pinching the butter to create pea-size pieces.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lightly dust a clean surface with flour. Spray a 10-inch pie pan with nonstick cooking spray. Roll out the dough to about 12 inches in diameter, then place in the pan. Pour the filling over the dough and sprinkle the crumb topping over the top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack before serving.

PEACH-BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Move the oven rack to the bottom third of the oven.
• Divide the dough in half and set one half aside; cover it with a towel or plastic wrap to keep it from drying out. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough to a 10-inch round. Loosely drape the dough round over the rolling pin and transfer to a 9-inch pie pan. Press the dough over the bottom and sides of the pan. Trim the edges to about 1/2-inch.
• Toss the fruit with the sugar, lemon, and cornstarch. Pile the fruit into the pie shell and dot with the butter. Roll out the reserved dough to a 9 to 10-inch round and lay it over the fruit. Trim, and crimp the edges. Cut 2 or 3 (2-inch) vents in the top of the pie and brush with the egg glaze. Put the pie on a baking sheet and bake until the crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbling up through the vents, 50 to 60 minutes. Cover the edges with aluminum foil if they brown too fast. Cool on a rack before serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
• Combine the flour, sugar, salt, and lemon zest in a large mixing bowl. Add the butter and mix with a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the egg yolk and ice water and work that in with your hands. (Or do the whole thing in a food processor, pulsing a couple of times to combine the dry ingredients, then pulsing in the butter, and then the egg.) Check the consistency of the dough by squeezing a small amount together between thumb and forefingers: You want there to be just enough moisture to bind the dough so that it holds together without being too wet or sticky. If it's still crumbly, add a little more ice water, 1 teaspoon at a time. When you get it to the right consistency, shape the dough into a disk and wrap it in plastic. Put it in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes.

• In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon and allspice. Add peaches and blueberries; toss to coat. , Preheat oven to 400°. On a lightly floured surface, roll one half of dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim even with rim. Add filling; dot with butter., Roll remaining dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; cut into 1/2-in.-wide strips. Arrange over filling in a lattice pattern. Trim and seal strips to edge of bottom crust; flute edge. Brush lattice strips with milk; sprinkle with cinnamon sugar., Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly, 40-45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

BLUEBERRY-PEACH PIE WITH PECAN CRUMB TOPPING

Steps:

• Place prepared pie crust (one that has been rolled out, placed in 9-inch pie pan, and edges crimped/fluted) in the freezer for 15 minutes; preheat oven to 400°.
• In a large bowl, combine the blueberries, peaches, ½ cup sugar, lime juice, and lime zest; mix well and then set aside for 10 minutes.
• In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons sugar; stir this mixture into the fruit mixture.
• Turn the filling into the chilled pie crust; smoothing the top with a spoon or your hands; place the pie on the center oven rack and bake for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, to make the topping-combine the flour, pecans, sugar, and salt in a food processor; pulse several times to chop the nuts coarsely.
• Scatter the butter over the top and pulse again until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.
• Sprinkle the milk over the mixture and pulse again briefly.
• Transfer the topping to a bowl and rub it between your fingers to make damp, gravelly crumbs; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Remove the pie from the oven and decrease temperature to 375°; carefully dump the crumbs in the center of the pie; spreading them evenly over the surface with your hands.
• Tamp them down lightly; return pie to oven, placing it so that the part that faced the back of the oven now faces forward.
• Slide a large foil-lined baking sheet onto the rack below to catch any drips.
• Continue to bake 30-40 minutes until the juices bubble thickly around the edge.
• If necessary, cover the pie with loosely tented foil for the last 15 minutes to keep the top from getting too brown.
• Transfer pie to a wire rack; let cook for at least 2 hours before serving.
