Equipment

  • Oven
  • baking sheet
  • large bowl
  • rolling pin

Ingredients
  

Filling

  • 2 lbs fresh peaches, pitted and thinly sliced
  • 0.25 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons spiced rum
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 recipe flaky pie crust
  • 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, toss the peach slices with the brown sugar, flour, rum, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • On a floured surface, roll the pie crust out into a 12-inch (30 cm) circle. Trim away any jagged edges with a knife or pizza cutter, then transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Pour the peach mixture and any accumulated liquid onto the center of the crust and spread evenly while leaving a 2-inch (5 cm) border around the edges.
  • Fold the edges of the pie crust up and over the peaches, pleating as necessary.
  • Brush the crust with cream, then sprinkle with the granulated sugar.
  • Bake for about 40 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the peaches are bubbling.
  • Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving with scoops of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
  • Store leftovers, loosely covered, at room temperature for up to 1 day.

Notes

No need to peel the peaches. Fresh peaches are preferred over frozen. Best when peaches are in season. You can use different crust options or apply an egg wash instead of cream. For variations, try adding grated ginger or raspberries. Serve with various toppings like whipped cream or fresh berries.
