Streusel Cream Peach Pie

Streusel Cream Peach Pie recipe image
This Streusel Cream Peach Pie is a comforting, old-fashioned dessert that celebrates the natural sweetness of ripe summer peaches. The fruit is baked until tender, sitting atop a rich, slightly creamy custard layer that adds luxurious texture without overwhelming the fruit flavor. The star of the show is the generous topping: a buttery, crumbly streusel made with brown sugar and flour that provides a perfect crunchy contrast to the soft, juicy fruit below. It&# 226;ÂÂs an ideal treat for weekend brunches, potlucks, or cozy family dinners. Simple to assemble with pantry staples, this pie delivers a warm, nostalgic experience that pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Ingredients
  • 10 Fresh Peaches
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1 Egg
  • 2 tablespoon Cream
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Softened Butter
  • 1/2 cup Flour
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 425ðF (220ðC).
  2. 2
    Peel, pit, and slice the peaches. Arrange them in a single layer in a greased 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.
  3. 3
    Sprinkle the sliced peaches evenly with 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg.
  4. 4
    In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 2 tablespoons of cream until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the peaches.
  5. 5
    In a separate bowl, combine the flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 1/4 cup softened butter. Mix with a fork or your fingers until the mixture forms coarse, crumbly clumps.
  6. 6
    Sprinkle the streusel crumb mixture evenly over the top of the peaches and cream.
  7. 7
    Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the peaches are tender when pierced with a fork and the streusel topping is golden brown and crisp.

Note

Serve the pie slightly warm to allow the flavors to meld. It pairs beautifully with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a dollop of sour cream.

For best results, use ripe but firm peaches that are fragrant and slightly yielding to the touch. If using frozen peaches, thaw and drain excess liquid before baking.

Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving to restore the crispness of the streusel.

If you prefer a stronger spice note, add a pinch of cinnamon along with the nutmeg. For a gluten-free version, substitute the flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend.
