Peach Pile
 
Ingredients
  • 1, 9-inch Deep Dish Pie Crust (I used store bought)
Peach Filling
  • 8 Large Firm, Fresh, Ripe Peaches
  • ¼ c. AP Flour
  • ½ c. Firmly Packed Light Brown Sugar
  • ⅓ c. Granulated Sugar
  • 1 t. Cinnamon
  • ⅛ t. Salt
  • 2 T. Cold Butter, diced
Oatmeal Brown Sugar Topping
  • ½ c. Oats
  • ½ c. AP Flour
  • ½ c. Firmly Packed Light Brown Sugar
  • ¼ c. (1/2 stick) Unsalted Butter, melted
  • ½ t. Cinnamon
Instructions
For the peach filling:
  1. Peel peaches and then cut into ½-inch thick chunks and place in a large bowl. Whisk together flour, sugars, cinnamon and salt and then add to the peaches, stirring to coat. Immediately spoon into the pie crust and dot with the two tablespoons of diced butter. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 and make the oatmeal topping.
For the Oatmeal Brown Sugar Topping:
  1. Thoroughly stir together the oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and melted butter until well combined. Remove the pie for the freezer and carefully press the oatmeal topping onto the pie.
Baking:
  1. Line a cookie sheet with foil and place the pie on top of the cookie sheet. Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees and bake 40 minutes. Cover loosely with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning and bake 25 more minutes or until juices are thick and bubbly. Transfer to a wire rack and cool two hours before serving or until completely cool.
Notes
Serves 8 *I found that for peeling the peaches, a potato peeler worked perfectly. Also, the recipe calls to bake the pie on the lower rack of the oven, but I accidentally baked mine on the middle rack and it turned out fine.
