  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed preferred
  • 1 cup granulated sugar adjust based on sweetness of peaches
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free blend
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon for spice
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg recommended for depth of flavor
  • 0.125 teaspoon cardamom optional
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt to round out flavors
  • 2 tablespoons butter (softened) adds richness to filling

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) for a golden-brown crust.
  2. Line a deep-dish pie plate with the first crust, pressing gently to avoid air bubbles.
  3. Toss sliced peaches with lemon juice to brighten flavor and prevent browning.
  4. Whisk together flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, and salt, then combine with peaches.
  5. Pour peach filling into the crust, dot with butter, and cover with the second crust.
  6. Trim excess dough and flute the edges; brush with egg and cut slits for steam to escape.
  7. Bake at 450°F for 15 minutes, then reduce to 350°F and bake for an additional 45-50 minutes.
  8. Allow pie to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing to let filling set.
