Instructions
Creating a delicious Peach Pie can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare the Peaches: In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Stir gently to coat the peaches evenly.
3. Roll Out the Crust: Unroll one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Ensure it covers the bottom and sides.
4. Fill the Pie: Pour the peach mixture into the pie crust, spreading it evenly.
5. Add Butter: Dot the filling with small pieces of butter for richness.
6. Top with Crust: Unroll the second pie crust and place it over the peach filling. Trim any overhanging edges and crimp the edges to seal.
7. Cut Vent Holes: Cut several small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
8. Apply Egg Wash: Brush the top crust with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Sprinkle coarse sugar over the top for added sweetness.
9. Bake: Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
10. Cool: Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
These steps will guide you in creating this incredible pie effortlessly.
