Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 6 cups sliced peaches fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup sugar adjust to taste
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch for thickening
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon optional
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
Crust
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons ice water more if needed

Method
 

Prepare the crust
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in ice water until dough forms.
  2. Divide dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Prepare the filling
  1. In a large bowl, combine sliced peaches, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss to coat evenly.
Assemble and bake
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out one disc of dough and fit into the baking dish. Fill with peach mixture.
  2. Roll out the second disc of dough and place over the filling. Cut slits for steam to escape. Bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
