Ingredients

Flaky Pie Crust

  • 1 ¼ cup (160 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp (15 g) granulated sugar
  • ¼ tsp (~1 g) salt
  • ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter cold, cubed
  • 3 tbsp (45 g) ice water

Peach Filling

  • 4 cups (500 g) peaches fresh or frozen
  • ½ cup (100 g) sugar
  • 2 tbsp (30 g) unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp (4 g) cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp (~1 g) salt
  • 2 tbsp (16 g) cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp (30 g) water

Crumble Topping

  • ¼ cup (60 g) unsalted butter melted
  • ¼ cup (60 g) brown sugar
  • ½ cup (65 g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (50 g) rolled oats
  • ¼ tsp (~1 g) salt

Instructions

Flaky Pie Crust

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt.
  • Add the cold, cubed butter. Using your hands, rub the butter into the flour until the butter pieces are small and the mixture feels like coarse sand.
  • Slowly add in the ice water, mixing until a cohesive dough forms.
  • Tightly wrap the dough in plastic wrap and allow it to rest in the fridge for about 2 hours.
  • Roll out the dough and use it to line a 9-inch pie plate.
  • Line the pie with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Blind bake at 350°F for 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Make the filling and the crumble topping while the pie blind bakes.

Peach Filling

  • In a large saucepan, combine the peaches, sugar, butter, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Heat the peach mixture over medium heat until it begins to bubble and the peaches start to break down.
  • In a separate, small bowl, combine the cornstarch and water to form a slurry.
  • Add the cornstarch slurry to the peach mixture and stir. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 6-8 minutes.
  • Pour the peach filling into the partially baked pie crust and top with the crumble topping.

Crumble Topping

  • In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, oats, and salt.
  • Add the melted butter and stir to form a crumble.
  • Top the pie with the crumble mixture and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden brown and the berry filling is bubbling.
  • Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
