Description

This classic Peaches & Cream Pie offers a delightful balance of sweet fruit and rich custard. Ripe peaches are arranged in a pie shell and topped with a smooth mixture of cream, eggs, and a hint of almond extract. As it bakes, the filling sets into a tender, pudding-like consistency while the peaches soften and release their natural juices. The result is a dessert that is both comforting and elegant, perfect for summer gatherings or a special weekend treat. Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or cold as a refreshing slice of nostalgia.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC).
  2. Arrange peach halves, cut-side up, in the unbaked pie shell.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream, almond extract, eggs, and 1/4 cup of sugar until smooth.
  4. Pour the cream mixture evenly over the peaches in the pie shell.
  5. Dot the tops of the peaches and filling with small pieces of butter.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar evenly over the top.
  7. Bake for 1 hour, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  8. Let cool completely before slicing to allow the custard to set.

Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Substitutions: If heavy cream is unavailable, you can use half-and-half for a slightly lighter texture. Vanilla extract can be used instead of almond extract.

Tip: For a crispier crust, you can partially bake the pie shell for 10 minutes before adding the filling.

Note: The original recipe listed "Vegan" in tags but includes eggs and dairy. This recipe uses traditional dairy and egg ingredients.
