Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cups Unsalted butter (cold, diced)
• 6 tablespoons Ice water
• 6 cups Fresh peaches (peeled, pitted, and sliced)
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar (for filling)
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 whole Egg
• 1 tablespoons Milk

Directions

Step 1

To make the crust, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Cut in the cold, diced butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Gradually add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with a fork until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 4

Divide the dough into two equal portions, shape each into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Stir gently to coat the peaches evenly and set aside.

Step 7

On a lightly floured surface, roll out one of the chilled dough discs into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a 9-inch pie pan, pressing it gently into the bottom and sides.

Step 8

Pour the peach filling into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 9

Roll out the second dough disc into a 12-inch circle. Place it over the peach filling and seal the edges by crimping them together. Trim any excess dough.

Step 10

Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 11

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to create an egg wash. Brush it over the top crust for a golden, glossy finish.

Step 12

Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, and bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 13

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set.

Step 14

Slice and serve as is, or pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
