Fresh Peach Apricot And Bing Cherry Pie Recipes

SOUTHERN SUMMER PEACH-CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch pie plate with one of the pie crusts.
• In a bowl, put the peaches, cherries, sugar, cornstarch, bourbon and lime zest and stir to combine. Pour into the pie shell and top with the second crust. You can do cut-outs or a lattice top if you'd like. Trim any extra dough off the edges, then crimp the edges. Make a tent out of foil and place over the pie.
• Bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 45 to 50 minutes. Serve warm or cool.

CLASSIC BING CHERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Press the bottom pie crust into a pie pan.
• Combine cherries, sugar, tapioca, lemon juice, and almond extract together in bowl. Refrigerate until cherry filling begins to set, about 10 minutes. Stir filling again; chill until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.
• Pour the filling into the bottom half of the pie crust; cover with top crust, crimp the edges to seal, and dot with butter. Cut vents into the top with a sharp knife.

APRICOT & PEACH PIE USING FRESH FRUITS

Steps:

• Line a 9 inch glass pie dish with one floured crust. I use a commercial, refrigerated, boxed crust that I have brought to room temperature before unrolling and flouring it. Home-made crusts might work even better. Set the 2nd crust aside to top the pie before baking.
• In a large bowl, mix the sugar and flour; then add the pealed, sliced peaches and apricots,and lemon juice. Mix well; then pour onto the 1st pie crust.
• Dice butter into small cubes and arrange atop the filling.
• Place 2nd crust on top of the filling. Crimp the edges of the crust together; then, use a knife to cost 4-5 one inch long air holes to prevent filling from over flowing as it bakes.
• Place the pie onto a pizza pan to catch drips. Bake pie at 350 degrees for 1 hour or slightly longer if you desire a darker crust. Serve warm or cold with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream as you prefer. It is even great plain! Enjoy!
