Mama Thorntons Peach Pie Recipes

COUNTRY PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Add 1/2 cup ice water and pulse until the dough just starts to come together. Divide the dough between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and form each into a disk; wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Make the filling: Toss the peaches in a bowl with 3/4 cup sugar, the flour, lemon juice and spices.
• Lightly dust a large piece of parchment paper with flour. Roll out 1 piece of the dough into a 12-inch round on the parchment. Ease the dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Add the filling, mounding it slightly in the center; dot with the butter and refrigerate. Roll out the second piece of dough into a 12-inch round and cut it into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Lay half of the strips on the pie in one direction, leaving about 1 inch of space between each strip. Lay the remaining strips on top, crossing them diagonally to make a lattice pattern (no need to weave); trim the edges of the strips, leaving a small overhang. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge of the crust with your fingers.
• Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water and brush on the crust edge and lattice top. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven. Put a baking sheet on the rack and preheat to 425 degrees F. Put the pie on the hot baking sheet and bake 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F and continue baking until the pie is golden and the filling is bubbly, 50 minutes to 1 hour. (Cover loosely with foil if the top is browning too quickly.) Transfer to a rack to cool completely before slicing.

PEACH MASCARPONE AND PECAN WONTONS

Steps:

• Pit the peaches and chop into small dice. In a small saucepan, cook the peaches and sugar over medium heat until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the mascarpone cheese and pecans. Keep the wonton wrappers under a moist towel to prevent drying out. Working one by one, place a heaping tablespoon of peach-mascarpone mixture in the center of the wrapper. Brush egg wash along the top two sides, and then fold into a triangle, squeezing out as much air as possible. Line the finished wontons on a plate and cover with another damp towel until ready to fry.
• In a medium-sized skillet, heat the oil until just smoking. Working in batches, fry the wontons until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the wontons to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with confectioners' sugar.

THIS AIN'T YOUR MAMA'S PEACH PIE

Steps:

• Filling:
• Put the peaches into a large mixing bowl. Add all of the remaining ingredients and mix until the peaches are saturated and coated with the honey. Cover and refrigerate until ready to bake.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Crust:
• Put all of the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until small dime-sized balls are formed. If you don't have a food processor, put the ingredients into a bowl and, using a knife, cut the shortening and butter into the flour. When all the ingredients are incorporated, turn out onto a lightly floured surface and quickly knead the dough into a disc. Do not work dough too much. Gently roll the dough out and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim the edges, or shape the edges as desired. Poke several holes in the bottom of the dough with a fork.
• Put the peaches into the pie pan, and bake for about 12 to 18 minutes, depending on the color of the edges of the pie crust. When the edges are a beautiful brown, take the pie out of oven and cool.
• Whipped topping:
• Put all of the ingredients into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer, until a silky whipped cream is formed; this should take about 3 minutes or so.
• When pie has cooled, use a spatula to spread the whipped topping over the surface of the pie. This pie is a picture perfect masterpiece that even Mom would be proud of.
