Ingredients
Pastry for double-crust 9-inch pie
1 (Prepared and rolled out)
Fresh sliced peaches
5 cups (About 9 medium peaches, peeled and sliced)
Lemon juice
1 teaspoon (Freshly squeezed)
Sugar
1 cup ( Granulated)
Flour
1/4 cup (All-purpose)
Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon (Ground)
Butter or margarine
2 tablespoons (Cut into small pieces)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Prepare the double-crust pastry: Roll out half the pastry dough and line the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan.
3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches with lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the peaches evenly.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, flour, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
5
Add the sugar mixture to the peaches, stirring until the peaches are evenly coated with the mixture.
6
Pour the peach filling into the pastry-lined pie pan, spreading it out evenly.
7
Dot the filling with small pieces of butter or margarine for added richness.
8
Roll out the second half of the pastry dough to create the top crust. Place it over the filling, sealing the edges by crimping them together with your fingers.
9
Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape, and create a decorative pattern if desired.
10
To prevent the edges from browning too quickly, cover them with strips of aluminum foil, leaving the center open.
11
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the crusts are golden brown and the peach juices are bubbling through the slits.
12
Remove the aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking for an even browning.
13
Once done, remove from oven and cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
