#Fresh peach pie with crumb topping skin#
Run a knife around the core of the peach (like you’re cutting it in half) and slide the skin off. Remove peaches and place in an ice bath (large bowl or sink of water filled with ice) to stop the cooking. TIP: To easily peel fresh peaches, place them in a large pot of boiling water, and boil for 60 seconds. Just peel, core, and slice the fruit, then make the filling. How do you make peach pie with fresh peaches?įresh peaches will work the same as frozen peaches in this recipe. If the crust browns faster than the filling bubbles, cover it with foil about halfway through baking. Don’t just take the pie out when the crust browns. This ensures the thickener (cornstarch) is activated and the filling has thickened. I’m going to reiterate the importance of baking the pie until the filling bubbles in the center. So waiting to add the sugar and other ingredients until just before filling the pie crust is important, to prevent a runny filling. When sugar is added to fruit it draws out the juices. From my step-by-step pictures you can see that I had my bottom crust in the pan and the top crust rolled out before I mixed my filling, so that it doesn’t get too runny.

Don’t mix the filling ingredients until ready to bake.This will reduce the amount of liquid in the filling. Thaw and drain the frozen peaches well.You can alternately place the lined baking sheet on the rack below the pie. Bake the pie on a baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper to catch any spills.Use a clear pie dish to be able to see if the bottom crust has browned.
