Prep Time: 20 min
Cook Time: 50 min
Total Time: 1 hr 10 min

Ingredients

For the Peach Filling:

  • 6 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or frozen, thawed)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp butter

For the Triple Crust:

  • 2 store-bought pie crusts (or homemade if preferred)
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar (for topping)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat and Prep
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a deep 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.

2. Prepare the Filling
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine peaches, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Stir and cook until thickened and bubbly (8–10 minutes). Stir in butter. Remove from heat.

3. Build the Layers
Roll out one crust to cover the bottom of the baking dish. Pour in half of the peach filling. Add the second crust over the filling. Pour in the remaining peaches. Finish with the final crust on top, crimping the edges or leaving rustic-style edges.

4. Add the Finishing Touches
Brush the top crust with beaten egg and drizzle with melted butter. Sprinkle with sugar.

5. Bake to Perfection
Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes until the top crust is golden and bubbling. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream if you dare. ????????
