Peach Pie

Our autumn is revving up...the Alaska State Fair is underway together with it is the absolute end of our growing flavor (we volition convey frost inward less than ii weeks). What does all that mean? It is finally cool plenty to bake to my hearts content, which makes me a happy camper.
Hubby is the pie eater at our household together with he likes thinner pies every bit opposed to deep dish pies, thus I started baking his pies inward a ii piece tart pan. At get-go I resisted, but shortly discovered that the tart pan non entirely makes a prettier pie, but they are also much easier to serve (no pie plate corners to maneuver only about when your cutting that get-go piece).

CRUST
2 together with 1/2 cups all usage flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 loving cup H2O ice mutual depression temperature butter
6-8 tablespoons H2O ice water
Place the flour, common salt together with mutual depression temperature butter (cubed) into a nutrient processor together with pulse a few times until yous become fine crumbs. Pour this mixture into a bowl together with add together half-dozen tablespoons of H2O ice water. If the dough is also dry, add together to a greater extent than H2O ice H2O (1

tablespoon at a time) until the dough hangs together inward a ball. Divide your dough inward to ii pieces (top crust + bottom crust). Wrap ane piece inward plastic together with seat it inward the fridge. Dust your counter amongst flour together with ringlet out the other piece of dough to an 1/8" thickness. Place it inward the pie plate (or tart pan). Do non stretch the dough. Place this bottom crust inward the refrigerator piece yous brand the fruit filling.
PEACH FILLING
5 cups of fresh peaches (peeled together with sliced)
1/2 loving cup white sugar
1/2 loving cup brownish sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 loving cup all usage flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
Mix the sugars, cinnamon, flour, common salt together with peaches (gently) until everything is moistened. Stir inward vanilla extract. Remove bottom crust from the refrigerator together with "paint" the INSIDE surface of it amongst egg launder (1 egg mixed amongst 1 tablespoon H2O ). This volition aid cash inward one's chips on the bottom crust from getting soggy piece baking. Pour the fruit filling into the bottom crust together with dot the filling amongst pocket-size pinches of mutual depression temperature butter.

Roll out the run past times crust...place it on run past times of the fruit together with pinch the edges (if yous are using a pie plate) or run your rolling pivot across the edges if yous are using a tart pan. Cut a vent hole inward the run past times pie crust. Brush egg launder over the surface of the pie together with sprinkle amongst white sugar. Bake inward a PREHEATED 450 oven for xv minutes, thus lower the rut to 350 for xxx to a greater extent than minutes. Remove pie from oven together with cool at to the lowest degree three hours earlier cutting.

NOTE: When I bake a pie inward a criterion pie plate (especially drinking glass pie plates) I spray the plate amongst only a petty cooking spray. This helps when it comes fourth dimension to take the pie, particularly if some of the juices convey flora their means nether the crust. This is non necessary amongst the ii piece tart pan.
NOTE: Mix dough every bit speedily every bit possible (when using your hands) thus that yous don't warm upwardly the butter.
NOTE: When yous pigment the within bottom crust amongst the egg wash, live careful non to become also much of it upwardly past times the run past times border of the tart pan (or the crust volition become glued to the pan).
NOTE: Put a cookie canvass nether your pie pan piece it is inward the oven only inward example yous convey tumble overs.
