Description

Old-Fashioned Peach Cream Pie is a classic summer dessert with fresh peaches, rich cream, and a flaky crust. Easy to make and full of flavor, it’s a nostalgic favorite for warm-weather gatherings. Try it today!


Ingredients

Scale

1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust

23 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced

¾1 cup granulated sugar

4 heaping tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 cup heavy cream


Instructions

Prepare the Crust: Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate, ensuring it’s evenly fitted.

Add Peaches: Layer the peeled and sliced peaches evenly over the crust. Avoid overfilling to prevent spillage during baking.

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the sugar and flour. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the peaches.

Incorporate Cream: Gently stir the peaches to coat them with the sugar-flour mixture. Then, drizzle the heavy cream over the top, allowing it to seep through the layers. Use a spoon to gently move the peaches, ensuring the cream settles throughout.

Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slide the pie into the oven and allow it to bake for 45 to 60 minutes. The pie is done when the filling is set, and the top has a slight golden hue. To test, insert a knife into the center; if it comes out with a milky liquid, continue baking until it emerges clean or with a pudding-like consistency.

Cool and Refrigerate: Let the pie cool at room temperature until it’s completely set. Once cooled, wrap it securely with plastic wrap or foil and place it in the refrigerator.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture. Taste the peaches beforehand to adjust sugar if needed. Fully cool and refrigerate the pie to allow the filling to set properly.
