Recipe for Strawberry and Peach Pie
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon
3 medium peaches, cored and sliced
3 cups of strawberries, thinly sliced
3 Tbsp lemon juice (I use the little plastic lemon stuff.)
1 egg
1 Tbsp water
2 deep-dish pie crusts, thawed (one for top)
1. Preheat over to 425 degrees.2. Add peaches and strawberries to large bowl.3. Mix flour, sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon in a small bowl.4. Add dry mixture to fruit and toss. 5. Add lemon juice to fruit mixture.6. Add water to egg and beat. Brush egg mixture on bottom of one pie crust. 7. Prick bottom pie crust. Add fruit mixture.8. Cut other pie crust into 1/2-inch strips and create a lattic on top of the pie. (Instead of cutting top into strips, you could also cut some decorative holes in the top crust with apple- or other-shaped cookie cutters.) I found this step worked better if you ball up the top pie crust, then roll it back out before cutting or working with it.9. Brush top of pie with egg.10. Cook for ten minutes at 425, then turn oven down to 350 and cook for another 35-40 minutes until crust is browned and the filling is bubbly. (Cooking it at 425 for ten minutes will firm up your crust.)
This would be great served warm with ice cream!
