  • 6 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches (frozen is also fine)
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4–1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust this based on sweetness of peaches)

  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • pinch of ginger (optional)

  2. In a large bowl, add peaches, lemon zest and juice, both sugars, all spices and vanilla, and cornstarch or flour and toss together until peaches are well coated. If the peaches are frozen, you might need a little bit more flour so the filling isn’t wet.

  8. Brush top of pie crust with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
  9. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown and inside peach filling is bubbling.
