My Aunt Herminia invited me over to her house to pick peaches and pears. I had a wonderful time gathering up this beautiful organically grown fruit. I also enjoyed visiting with her and my dad. I in return supply her with the wine I make with the fruit. I also invited her the next weekend to my house for a catfish supper topped off with a fresh peach pie that I made with the fruit I had gathered from her fruit trees.
I love, absolutely love homemade desserts! This peach pie is wonderful. It is made from homegrown peaches ladled into a homemade from scratch crust. I hope you try this recipe.
First, I washed and peeled the peaches with a potato peeler.
Next, I cut the peaches into slices and discard the peach pit.
I combined the sliced peaches, which should measure about 4 cups of peaches, with 1 cup sugar (If the peaches are sweeter add less sugar. If the peaches are tarter then add more sugar.) Also add 2 ½ tablespoons of all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg, 1 ½ tablespoons of lemon juice, and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon.
Pour peaches into a homemade pie crust The Texas Pioneer Woman Homemade Pie Crust. Dot peaches with 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine.
Roll out pastry and cut into strips. Place pastry strips on top of peaches and weave across top of pie. Flute to the sides of the pie dish cutting off pastry at the edge of the pie pan.
