Peach Pie The Old Fashioned Two Crust Way Recipes

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.

PEACH PIE THE OLD FASHIONED TWO CRUST WAY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Line the bottom and sides of a 9 inch pie plate with one of the pie crusts. Brush with some of the beaten egg to keep the dough from becoming soggy later.
• Place the sliced peaches in a large bowl, and sprinkle with lemon juice. Mix gently. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Pour over the peaches, and mix gently. Pour into the pie crust, and dot with butter. Cover with the other pie crust, and fold the edges under. Flute the edges to seal or press the edges with the tines of a fork dipped in egg. Brush the remaining egg over the top crust. Cut several slits in the top crust to vent steam.
• Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes, until the crust is brown and the juice begins to bubble through the vents. If the edges brown to fast, cover them with strips of aluminum foil about halfway through baking. Cool before serving. This tastes better warm than hot.
