Description
This easy Canned Peach Pie recipe uses canned peaches to create a delicious, sweet, and comforting dessert with a flaky pie crust and warm spiced filling, perfect for any time of the year.
Ingredients
- 2 (15-ounce) cans of sliced peaches in juice or light syrup, drained
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 package (14.1 ounces) refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts)
- 1 egg (for egg wash, optional)
- 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash, optional)
- Coarse sugar for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Drain the canned peaches and place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and lemon juice to the peaches. Stir gently to combine.
- Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate.
- Pour the peach filling into the crust and dot with pieces of butter.
- Top with the second crust. You can lay it on whole or cut into strips to create a lattice top. Seal and crimp the edges.
- Cut slits in the top crust if not using a lattice. Brush with egg wash (egg beaten with water) and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.
- Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
- If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
- Let the pie cool for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set.
Notes
- You can use canned peaches in juice or light syrup, but be sure to drain them well.
- If you prefer a sweeter pie, increase the sugar slightly based on taste.
- Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
- Pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
