Peach Pie Recipe

Fresh peach pie is a summer sensation enjoyed by millions. This wonderfully delicious dessert is a staple at picnics and barbeques, and a favorite summer holiday treat. Traditionally a tender, flaky two crust pie with fresh fruit filling, this classic version of the pie can be served hot, warm or cold, and is a perfect accompaniment to any meal, including breakfast! When fresh peaches are out of season, both canned and frozen peaches make very suitable pies. Some adjustments are always required when not using fresh fruits to achieve proper consistencies, flavor and texture.

The peak season for peaches is between May and August. The fresh varieties we find in supermarkets, specialty food stores, and farmers markets should be stored at room temperature and not refrigerated. Select peaches that are ripe with no blemishes. Peaches do not ripen after being picked, so avoid specimens with any green color indicating an under ripe fruit. The best pies start with a great pie crust, and a great pie crust starts with the best, fresh ingredients.
