Manon’s Peach Pie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
• 3-4 tablespoons ice water
• 5-6 large ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, diced

Directions:

1. In a medium bowl, mix together flour and salt. Add diced butter and use a pastry blender or your hands to cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Add ice water one tablespoon at a time, mixing with a fork until the dough comes together and forms a ball.
3. Flatten the dough into a disc and wrap it in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
4. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
5. In a large bowl, mix together sliced peaches, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
6. Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch (23cm) pie dish.
7. Place the rolled out dough into a 9-inch (23cm) pie dish and trim any excess dough from the edges.
8. Pour the peach filling into the pie dish and dot the top with diced butter.
9. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
10. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
