THE EASIEST PEACH-RASPBERRY PIE WITH PRESS-IN CRUST

Steps:

• Make the crust and crumb topping:
• Whisk 2 1/2 cups flour, salt, and 1 Tbsp. sugar in a large bowl. Drizzle in butter. Stir just to combine but do not fully incorporate. Texture should be crumbly with some large clumps.
• Transfer 1 1/4 cups (loosely packed) crust mixture to a medium bowl; add cinnamon and remaining 3 Tbsp. sugar. Knead with fingertips until well-combined but still crumbly with a few pea-sized pieces remaining. Freeze until ready to use.
• Add vinegar and 2 Tbsp. cold water to remaining crust mixture. Stir to form a dough, then transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead a few times until the texture is smooth. Transfer to pie pan and press into bottom and up sides with a flat-bottomed measuring cup. Crimp edge with a floured fork, if desired, and freeze while you prepare the filling.
• Make the filling and bake the pie:
• Position 1 rack in bottom third and 1 rack in center of oven; preheat to 425°F. Place a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet on bottom rack to preheat.
• Slice peaches into 1/4-inch-thick wedges, then transfer to a large bowl. Add raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and salt and toss well to combine. Fill pie crust with fruit mixture, then sprinkle with crumb topping.
• Place pie on preheated sheet and bake until crust begins to turn golden, 20-25 minutes. Rotate sheet, move to center rack, and reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Continue to bake pie until crust is golden brown and thickened juices are bubbling, 35-45 minutes more; cover crust with foil or a pie shield if it begins to darken too much before juices are bubbling. Cool on a wire rack at least 2 hours to allow juices to set before slicing.
• Do Ahead
• Pie dough and crumb topping can be made and frozen for up to 3 months; thaw before using.

PEACH RASPBERRY TOP-CRUST PIES

Transfer round to a large baking sheet and chill, covered. Roll out and chill remaining dough in same manner and stack it on top of first round. Chill pastry rounds, loosely covered with plastic wrap, 15 minutes.
• Cut an X in blossom end of each peach. Have ready a large bowl of ice and cold water. Fill a 5-quart kettle three fourths full with water and bring to a boil. Working in batches, blanch peaches 15 seconds and transfer with a slotted spoon to ice water. Slip skins from peaches and, working over a large bowl to catch the juices, cut peaches into 1/2-inch-thick wedges. Gently toss peaches with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla, and raspberries until combined well.
• With a spoon divide filling between two 9-inch (1-quart) glass pie plates, mounding fruit. Juice should reach no higher than 1/4 inch below rim of each pie plate. With spoon remove excess juice from pie plates and discard.
• In a small bowl whisk eggs and evenly brush onto tops and undersides of pie plate rims. Cover each pie with a pastry round and trim pastry with scissors, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang and, if desired, reserving scraps for decorations. Brush undersides of overhang with some egg and press overhang onto and under rims of pie plates to seal. Chill pies until pastry is firm, about 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 425°F.
• On a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin roll out reserved pastry scraps 1/4 inch thick and with a sharp small knife cut out 2 decorations (such as the family initial), transferring to a plate. Chill decorations 15 minutes.
• Line 2 jelly-roll pans with foil.
• Brush crusts evenly with some egg and arrange decorations in centers, pressing lightly to adhere. With a sharp knife cut three 3/4-inch-long slits on top of each pie to form steam vents. Brush decorations with some egg and transfer pies to jelly-roll pans (to catch drips). Bake pies in upper and lower thirds of oven, staggering pans if possible on oven racks and switching position of pans halfway through baking, about 1 to 1 1/4 hours total, or until pastry is golden brown and cooked through. (If pastry gets too brown too quickly, tent pies with foil).
• Let pies stand on racks to set juices at least 1 1/2 hours before serving. Pies may be made 1 day ahead and kept, loosely covered, at room temperature. If desired, reheat pies, uncovered, in a 350°F. oven.
