Tips & Substitutions
To enhance the flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg along with the cinnamon. If you're out of oleo, unsalted butter can be a suitable substitute. For a twist, try using fresh peaches instead of canned, but make sure to adjust the baking time if they are juicier. This pie also works well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh peaches instead of canned?
Yes, you can use fresh peaches! Just peel and slice about 4-5 medium peaches. Remember to adjust the baking time as fresh peaches may release more moisture, potentially requiring a few extra minutes in the oven.
How can I make this pie gluten-free?
To make a gluten-free version, substitute the plain flour with a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend. Ensure that all other ingredients, like the pudding mix, are also gluten-free. This will help maintain the texture while accommodating dietary needs.
What can I do if I don't have vanilla pudding?
If you don't have vanilla pudding, you can make a homemade version using cornstarch, sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Combine 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 1/4 cup sugar, then slowly whisk in 2 cups of milk and cook until thickened. This will work as a suitable substitute in the recipe.
