Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups sliced fresh peaches (about 6-8 medium peaches)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 recipe for pie crust (for a 9-inch pie)
  • For the Crumb Topping:
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, gently toss the sliced peaches with granulated sugar, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Let stand for 10-15 minutes to allow the juices to release.
  3. Pour the peach mixture into your prepared pie crust.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt for the crumb topping.
  5. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the peach filling.
  7. Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
  8. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the topping starts to brown too quickly, you can loosely tent the pie with aluminum foil.
  9. Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 2-3 hours before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly.

Notes

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, fresh peaches.
  • If fresh peaches are not in season, you can use frozen peaches, but be sure to thaw them completely and drain off any excess liquid before using.
  • You can add a pinch of cardamom to the filling for an extra layer of flavor.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special treat.
  • The pie crust can be homemade or store-bought.
