Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375ðF (190ðC).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cut 3/4 cup cold butter into the flour mixture using a pastry blender or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add 2 tablespoons milk, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough just comes together.
  5. Divide dough in half; form into two disks, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
  6. Roll out one disk of dough and line a 9-inch pie plate, trimming excess edges.
  7. In a bowl, toss 8 sliced peaches with 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1/4 cup flour, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest.
  8. Pour peach mixture into the prepared crust.
  9. Roll out the second disk of dough and place over the filling; crimp edges to seal.
  10. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  11. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling.
  12. Cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Note

Ensure butter is very cold when making the crust for a flakier texture.

If peaches are very juicy, you may increase the flour in the filling slightly to prevent runniness.

Cover edges of crust with foil if browning too quickly during baking.

Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
