Sour cream gives a creamy texture to this fresh peach pie. This is an incredibly easy pie to make, but very impressive.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

  • Pastry for 9-inch pie
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup commercial thick sour cream
  • 5 cups peaches, peeled and quartered
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, lightly packed

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 450F. Line 9-inch pie plate with pastry. Trim and flute edges; do NOT prick pastry.

With rotary beater, beat flour, sugar, and sour cream (use commercial sour cream from store). Arrange flat edge of peach quarters on pastry in concentric circles. Pour sour cream mixture on top.

Bake 15 minutes at 450 degrees F, then lower heat to 350 degrees F and bake 25 to 30 minutes or until filling is set. Sprinkle brown sugar over hot pie. Broil 1 to 2 minutes till sugar is melted. Serve warm.
