What is Old-Fashion Peach Pie?


Peach pie is made with fresh, frozen or canned peaches. The basic fruit pie filling, made with fresh fruit, lemon juice, sugar and cinnamon, can be frozen in advanced and used later.  Peach pie can be topped with whipped cream or streusel with other ingredients like nuts, fresh fruit, coconut or cinnamon.

How to peel peaches?

Score the peaches: While the water is coming to a boil, use a sharp paring knife to make a small “x” through the skin at the base of each peach.

Blanch the peaches: Put the peaches in the boiling water, making sure they are entirely submerged. Blanch them for 40 seconds

Use a slotted spoon to transfer the blanched peaches to the bowl of ice water. Leave them to cool, about 1 minute, then drain the peaches.

Using your fingers or a paring knife peel the skin off the peaches. After blanching, the peel really will come off just that easily.
