Peach Pie

November 14, 2024
This Peach Pie is a luscious, custard-style dessert that blends the sweetness of ripe peaches with the rich creaminess of an almond-kissed filling. A partially baked crust ensures a crisp base, while sliced peaches are layered and enveloped in a smooth mixture of eggs, brown sugar, vanilla, and almond paste.
As it bakes, the pie sets into a beautifully golden centerpiece that’s both elegant and comforting. Perfect served warm or chilled, this pie pairs wonderfully with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. A summer favorite made timeless.
