Secret Recipe Club: Peach Vanilla Pie

vanilla peach pieIt's time for another post from the Secret Recipe Club. This month I received the fantastic blog, I Am a Honey Bee.  There were so many amazing recipes to choose from, but I settled on a recipe for vanilla peach pie.  It's peach season here in Texas, which means giant, juicy and sweet peaches for 99 cents a pound.  The original recipe didn't call for peeling the peaches, but I figured it would help the texture of the filling.  I learned the peach peeling technique from making Miss F's food when she was a baby.  It really helps cut a lot of time and makes it crazy easy to peel a peach.
Vanilla Peach Pie

Pie crust (recipe follows)
8 large fresh peaches
½ to ¾ cup of vanilla infused sugar
¼ cup flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Roll out 2 discs of dough. Set bottom dough in pie plate, refrigerate. Slice the top crust into eight ¾”wide strips and refrigerate.

Boil a small saucepan full of water, enough to cover a peach. Drop a peach into the water for 30 seconds, remove with tongs and set aside. Repeat with remaining peaches. Remove skin from the peaches and slice.

In a large bowl, combine the peaches, vanilla sugar and flour. Place peaches in the bottom crust and then cover with the strips of pie crust in a lattice design. Place the small pieces of butter in the places where the crust is open to the fruit.

Bake the pie on a sheet tray at 425 degrees for 10 minutes. Turn the oven down to 350 degrees and continue to bake 35 minutes, or until crust is lightly browned.

Pie Crust

2 ½ cups flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into ½ inch cubes
3 to 4 tablespoons ice water

Pulse flour, sugar and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and process until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. With the machine running, add ice water in a slow steady stream until mixture just begins to hold together.

Shape dough into a disk, wrap in plastic and refrigerate 1 hour or up to 3 days, before using.

Yum! I love the combination of those flavors... and the flaky pie crust doesn't hurt, either :)

Looks delicious! I love peach pie in the summer. To me, it's one of only a few ways to actually improve upon the awesomeness of ripe summer peaches.

Nothing better in the summer than a fresh peach pie, yum!

shari@myjudythefoodie said...

um - looks amazing I'm all about using ripe summer fruit in our desserts. I'm going to have to muster up the energy to actually make a pie crust from scratch. I've been using pre-made crusts! Fellow SRC Group D Member

Gloria Baker said...

Such a gorgeous job you did on that pie!!! I can't wait to have some peaches of my own to make such a pie :-)

SallyBR said...

What a gorgeous looking pie! My husband is the one in charge of doing the lattice effect, I lack the skills (and the patience!)

peach pie is just THE perfect dessert for summer...

Kelsey said...

Beautiful job on this pie!! It looks so delicious. I learned how to peel peaches while making my own baby food, too! :) And that is an awesome deal for peaches - 99 cents a pound! Wow! Great SRC post! :)

Nicole @ The Daily Dish said...

This pie looks fantastic! I love peach pie, but I never thought of adding the stronger vanilla flavor to it, and that is quite appealing. Great pick!
