My all-time favourite pie -- in the entire universe of existence -- is peach pie. I would die for a peach pie. I would kill for a peach pie. Peach pie is my Klondike Bar.
But, excitement aside, I want to share with you how easy it is to make a peach pie. It really is the easiest pie you could ever make.
All you need is a pie crust -- be
it one that you've made, or one that someone else made for you -- and
some peaches. I use freestone peaches that are lovingly grown in
British Columbia -- I like to use local peaches -- because they
are easily removed from the pit.
Pour some boiling water over the peaches, and after about a minute move them over
to some cold water. The skin should peel off quite nicely. Cut them
into small sections -- or whatever size you like -- and place them in a bowl where you will add a
mixture of sugar and flour that you've already prepared -- 1 cup of sugar
and 1/2 a cup of flour stirred together.
Put the pie on a cookie sheet -- to catch any juices that may come juicing out -- and place it in a 450F oven for 10 minutes. Then turn the temperature down to 350F and cook for 40 minutes until the crust is a golden brown.
And there you go! It's easy as, well, pie :)
Peach season just ended in Ontario! I am so sad, I posted pie recipes as well, during the short, yummy season!!
