Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 450°F (220°C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until a dough just comes together. (10 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Gently knead the dough briefly on a lightly floured surface. Roll it out to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate, crimp the edges, and prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. (10 minutes)

04

Step
25 mins

Blind bake the crust: To prevent sagging, line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the parchment paper and weights, then bake for another 5-8 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely. (25 minutes)

05

Step
15 mins

Make the filling: In a saucepan, whisk together cornstarch and sugar. Gradually stir in orange juice, water, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes clear. Remove from heat and let cool completely. (15 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Assemble the pie: Gently fold the sliced peaches into the chilled citrus sauce. Pour the mixture into the baked pie crust, arranging the peach slices evenly. (5 minutes)

07

Step
2 hrs

Chill the pie for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set. (120 minutes)

08

Step

Serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

For a flakier crust, ensure the shortening is very cold. You can even chill the flour and bowl beforehand.
If the crust edges are browning too quickly during the blind baking, cover them with foil.
Feel free to experiment with other fruits in this pie, such as berries or nectarines.
For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of butter to the filling after removing it from the heat.

    The tip about chilling the filling before adding the peaches is crucial. It prevents the crust from getting soggy.

    I added a pinch of ginger to the filling for a little extra spice. It was delicious!

    I've never made a pie crust from scratch before, but this recipe was easy to follow and the crust turned out amazing!
