Ingredients
Instructions
- Slice peaches and add them to an unbaked 9-inch pie shell.
- Set aside.
- Mix sugar, flour, melted butter, and beaten eggs together.

- Bake at 400°F for 15 minutes.

Tips & Substitutions
For a sweeter pie, adjust the sugar based on the ripeness of your peaches; start with 1/2 cup and add more to taste. If you prefer a thicker filling, increase the flour to 3 tablespoons. Consider using a Peanut Butter Crust for a unique twist. Always taste your mixture before pouring to ensure the sweetness is just right.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the Peach Pie Supreme warm or at room temperature, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. It pairs beautifully with Marion'S Delicious Rice Pudding for a delightful dessert duo. Fresh mint leaves can add a refreshing touch as a garnish.
Storage & Reheating
To store leftovers, cover the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes or until warmed through. This helps maintain the pie's crispiness without making it soggy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen peaches instead of fresh?
Yes, you can use frozen peaches, but be sure to thaw and drain them to remove excess moisture before adding to the pie. This helps prevent a soggy crust and ensures the right texture.
What can I substitute for eggs in this recipe?
You can use 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce or a flaxseed meal substitute (1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal mixed with 2.5 tablespoons of water) for each egg to make this a suitable option for vegetarian recipes.
How do I know when the pie is done baking?
The pie is done when the filling is set and the top is golden brown. You can check by gently shaking the pie; if the filling jiggles slightly but is not liquid, it’s ready. Allow it to cool before slicing to enhance the flavors.
