  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Scale

Pie Crusts

  • 2 pieces Pillsbury refrigerated pie crusts (or homemade, 9-inch size)

Peach Filling

  • 6–7 cups sliced peaches (fresh, peeled and pitted, or well-drained canned/frozen)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, browned
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (for thickening)

Optional Ingredients

  • 1 cup extra pre-baked pie crust pieces (for stuffing the middle)
  • 1/2 cup flour (for crumble topping)
  • 1/4 cup sugar (for crumble topping)
  • 4 tablespoons cold butter (for crumble topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or deep pie dish.
  2. Roll out one crust and fit it into the bottom of the dish, pressing into corners. For a crispier base, pre-bake for 8 minutes before filling. Reserve the second crust for topping.
  3. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally until golden brown and nutty, about 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat immediately to prevent burning.
  4. In a large bowl, toss peaches with granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch. Pour the browned butter over and mix well to coat.
  5. Pour half of the peach filling into the bottom crust. If using, add extra pre-baked crust pieces for crunch. Layer the remaining peaches on top.
  6. Top with the reserved crust, trimming and sealing the edges. Cut a few slits in the top to vent steam.
  7. Bake uncovered for 35–45 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the filling bubbles through. Tent the edges with foil if they brown too quickly.
  8. Cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. The filling will thicken as it sets. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

  • Use fresh peaches for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don’t skip browning the butter — it adds deep, nutty richness.
  • Mix in other fruits like berries or nectarines for a twist.
