Cute placemat courtesy of a good friend (bday present!)
Isn’t it gorgeous? (if I do say so myself…) A friend and I went blueberry picking, and we stopped at an orchard on the way home to add peaches to our summer fruit stash. Unfortunately, we had pretty much no idea what we were doing, so we ended up with some not-so-fantastic fruit, but the ones that went into this pie were gems. I actually think I should have used peaches that weren’t quite so ripe since I ended up with a cup of juice floating around in the filling, but it certainly didn’t ruin the flavor!
Close-up of a crust that looked delicious, but tasted less so
I wasn’t all that impressed with the crust (when I was really into making pies, I had a standby pastry recipe from my mom’s Mennonite cookbook, but I don’t have my own copy on hand), so I’ll try something else next time. Still, the filling was delicious (I used this recipe) and it was a perfect summer dessert.
