What do you do when you have some overly-ripe peaches? Make a pie!
Especially when it is as effortlessly as this to do so!
Ingredients:
filling:
5 peaches, peeled and sliced
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
crust:
2 cup flour
2 tsp. salt
1 cup oil
4 Tbs. milk (whole or 2%)
french topping:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup flour
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Peel the peaches (I do it messily so there is still some skin left) then slice them.
Place them in a large bowl.
3. Add the sugar and cinnamon to the peaches.
Mix with a spoon and put to the side.
The peaches will start to "sweat". :)
4. Mix together the ingredients for the crust.
Press the flour mixture into a 9" pie pan like a crumb crust.
The crust will be very moist.
5. Using a slotted spoon, layer the pan with the peach mixture.
6. Prepare the French Topping.
With your hands, mix together the butter and sugar until it is a wet crumble.
Then add the flour and mix until crumbly.
7. Cover the peaches with the French topping.
8. Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.
