Fresh Peach Crumb Pie
Crust Ingredients
2 cups Flour
1/4 tsp Salt
2 tsp. Sugar
2/3 cup COLD Butter
4 to 5 TBS. COLD WATER
Stir all dry ingredients together. Cut in butter & mix until you get fine crumbs. I use a pastry cutter but a fork works too. Stir in water until just combined . Flour surface & roll out dough. Use in your favorite recipes. If using crust in a meat pie leave out sugar.
For Blind Baking line pan with crust , trim & crimp edges. Bake in 350 degree oven for 10 minutes. This stops your pie crust from being soggy! Save your trimmings & leftover crust for Roly Polys'; recipe at end of this pie recipe!
PEACH FILLING
8 Large Very Ripe Peaches peeled, pitted & sliced in thin slices. ( immediately put slices in bowl with the fresh lemon juice so they do not brown).
1 Lemon juiced up to 1 & 1/2 TBS.
3/4 Sugar
1/4 cup Flour heaping
Dash of Salt
2 Tsp. Cinnamon
1 Tsp. Vanilla
Stir all ingredients gently into peaches. Mix just until combined. Pour into your BLIND baked crust.
CRUMB TOPPING
1 Cup Flour
3/4 Sugar
1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Tsp. Salt
4 TBS. Butter
1 Tsp. Cinnamon
Stir all dry ingredients together. Cut in butter to make crumbs. Spread crumb mixture of peach filling. Sprinkle with more cinnamon. Bake 45 Minutes at 375 Degrees. Pie should be browned & bubbling ! Let cool & serve to SMILING FACES !
Late night pie attack snacker ! But when there is pie, why not ?
ROLY POLYS'
Leftover unbaked pie crust. Roll out into oblong shape as this as you can. Spread with melted butter use as much as you need to cover surface with a generous portion. Sprinkle liberally with sugar & cinnamon. Roll up & slice in 1 & 1/2 inch wide rolls. Bake sitting up in your pan. Sprinkle tops with sugar before baking. I usually bake these with the pie I am making ! Bake just until brown about 25 minutes. DELICIOUS & Old Fashioned treat!
