Ingredients
For the Peach Filling:
- 8 cups fresh peaches, peeled & sliced (or 6 cups frozen)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp cornstarch (or 3 tbsp flour)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp butter, cubed
For the Triple Crust:
- 3 store-bought pie crusts (or homemade)
- 1 egg + 1 tbsp water (for egg wash)
- 2 tbsp coarse sugar (for topping)
Instructions
1. Prep the Filling
- In a large bowl, toss peaches with sugars, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.
- Let sit 15+ minutes to release juices.
2. Layer the Crusts & Filling
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13″ baking dish.
- First crust: Press one pie crust into the bottom and up the sides of the dish.
- Add filling: Pour peach mixture in, dot with butter.
- Second crust: Lay another crust over the top, tucking edges in. Cut slits to vent.
- Third crust: Cut the last crust into strips and weave a lattice, or lay it flat with vents.
3. Bake to Golden Perfection
- Brush crust with egg wash, sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake 45–55 minutes until bubbly and crust is deep golden.
- Cool 20+ minutes before serving (to let filling thicken).
Serving Tips
