Ingredients:

  • 1 package (2 sheets) refrigerated pie crusts
  • 5 cups fresh or frozen sliced peaches
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons elderflower liqueur
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (for sprinkling)

Directions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place one pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and set it aside.
  2. Prepare Peach Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, flour, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, elderflower liqueur, and lemon juice. Gently toss the mixture until the peaches are evenly coated with the ingredients.
  3. Fill the Pie Crust: Pour the prepared peach mixture into the prepared pie crust, ensuring an even distribution. Dot the top of the filling with small pieces of unsalted butter.
  4. Top and Seal the Pie: Place the second pie crust over the filling. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal the pie. Create slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
  5. Egg Wash and Sugar Topping: Brush the top crust with the beaten egg to create a golden, glossy finish. Sprinkle coarse sugar over the egg wash for added sweetness and texture.
  6. Bake the Pie: Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly and fragrant.
  7. Check and Adjust: If the edges of the pie crust begin to brown too quickly during baking, cover them with aluminum foil halfway through the baking process to prevent burning.
  8. Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the filling to set and ensures easier slicing.
