Author: Heather
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
- 6 Cups thinly sliced, peeled fresh peaches (Read my tutorial on how to quickly and easily peel peaches)
- ½ – ¾ Cup Sugar
- 3 Tablespoons flour
- ½ Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- Dash of Ground Nutmeg
- 2 tsp lemon juice
Instructions
- In a big bowl, mix together your sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add peaches and lemon juice. Toss peaches until coated.
- Line a 9″ pie plate with foil. Spoon pie filling into pie plate. Cover and freeze until firm. I put mine in overnight.
- Pull foil off of filling and place inside a gallon Ziploc bag. Place it back in the freezer until it’s pie time.
- To serve, pop frozen filling into the same pie plate with a crust (pre-made or homemade) Dot with 2 tbsp butter, diced.
- Top with pie crust, with slits, for steam to escape. Cover edge with foil to avoid over browning and bake at 375 for 45 minutes.
- Remove foil from edge and back 30 minutes more until crust is golden brown and juice begins to bubble. Cool on wire rack.
- Enjoy your pie!
