Peach Nectarine Sour Cream Custard Pie Recipes

PEACH AND NECTARINE PIE

Steps:

• To make the piecrust, blend together the flour and salt. Stir egg with fork in a measuring cup. Add water to fill measuring cup to 1 cup. Then slowly incorporate the egg mixture into the flour mixture with a fork, just until a dough is formed. Make 6 balls of crust. Use immediately or store in baggies up to 1 week or freeze.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Toss peaches and nectarines with lemon juice. Mix in the dry ingredients. Put mixture in pastry shell, dot with butter. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes.

PEACH & NECTARINE SOUR CREAM CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• On a well-floured surface, roll the prepared pastry dough out to an even circle about 12-inches in diameter. Carefully fold the dough in half and transfer it to a 9-inch pie pan. Unfold the dough and press it gently on to the bottom and sides of the pan - there should be some dough overhanging the edes. Leaving about 1/2-inch overhang, cut off any dough in excess of that. tuck the overhang under and pinch the edges decoratively to make a fluted edge - or simply press the edge with a fork if you prefer.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs slightly, then whisk in the sugar, sour cream, flour and cinnamon, Add the prepared peaches and nectarines (There should be about 5 cups prepared fruit) and stir to combine. Spoon into the pastry-lined pan and bake for 15 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 375F and continue baking for 30-45 minutes or until the fruit is tender and kjnife inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Let cool, slice and serve. Refrigerate any leftovers.

PEACH PIE WITH SOUR CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Butter a 9-inch pie dish.
• Place 1 1/4 cups flour, butter, salt, and 2 tablespoons sour cream in a food processor; pulse until mixture comes together in a large ball. Press dough into prepared pie dish to form a crust.
• Bake in preheated hoven until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove pie crust from oven.
• Reduce oven heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange peach slices in pie crust.
• Lightly beat egg yolks in a large bowl. Add in sugar, 1/3 cup sour cream, and 2 tablespoons flour; stir until well-mixed. Pour egg mixture over peaches. Cover pie with aluminum foil.
• Bake in preheated oven for 50 minutes; remove foil. Continue baking until peach filling is set, about 15 minutes more.

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.

PEACH CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• Place prepared unbaked pie shell in the freezer for 15 minutes; preheat oven to 425°.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk the sour cream, sugar, egg yolks, flour, and vanilla together until smooth; set aside.
• Arrange peach slices in the chilled pie shell in tight, stacked concentric circles; you don't have to make it look perfect, just relatively neat.
• Slowly and evenly pour the sour cream mixtgure over the peaches.
• Gently shake the pan to help the mixture settle between the peaches.
• Place the pie on the center oven rack; bake for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, to make the streusel topping: combine the flour, sugar, and butter in a mixing bowl; toss to blend.
• Using your fingers, rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Remove pie from oven and lower oven temperature to 400°.
• Dump the streusel in the center of the pie, spreading it evenly over the top with your hands.
• Tamp it down very gently.
• Return pie to oven, placing it so the part that faced teh back of the oven now faces forward.
• Continue to bake for about 25 minutes or until the topping is golden brown--may tent loosely with aluminum foil during the last 10 minutes to prevent overbrowning.
• Transfer pie to a wire rack; let cool at least 2 hours; once cooled to room temperature, cover loosely with foil and refrigerate before serving.

NECTARINE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grind the whole crackers in food processor until they turn into fine crumbs and pour in melted butter through feed tube; process until moistened. (Or combine cracker crumbs and butter in a medium-size bowl and mix until moistened.) Pat half of the crumb mixture over the bottom and up the sides of a deep 9- to 10- inch pie plate or springform pan.
• Cut the fruit in half and remove pits. Arrange pitted side up on the crust. If using frozen peaches, scatter evenly over the crust.
• Combine the sour cream, sugar, eggs and vanilla in a food processor and process until smooth. (Or combine in a bowl and whisk until blended.) Pour the filling over the fruit and sprinkle with the remaining crumb mixture. Bake 40 minutes, until puffed and set in center (If using frozen peaches, 20 minutes more.) Cool to room temperature, cover and refrigerate until chilled.
