We're only a few weeks into peach season, and I've already made this pie three times. It is that good. Plus if you buy a pie shell it only takes like 20 minutes from start to finish. Usually frozen pie shells come in two packs so, sometimes I'll buy two extra peaches and just put more slices in each and then divide the cooked part into each. Then it's less butter and sugar in each so a tad bit healthier and more fresh peaches. Plus you have a whole pie to take to a neighbor or something.
Ingredients
5 fresh peaches
1 cup sugar
3 T cornstarch
1/2 C water
3 T butter
3/4 t almond extract
Slice 3 peaches into a baked pie shell. In a saucepan mash 2 peaches. Add mixture of cornstartch, sugar and water. Boil five minutes stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in butter and extract. Pour over peach slices and let cool. Top with whipped cream.
why can't i be that neighbor?? this sounds sooo delicious! we just have to live by each other one day!
