Yummy, but a homemade crust is the clincher. I made it with a lattice top (cut strips with a pizza cutter and a clean ruler to keep width equal and strips straight).

I thought this pie was fabulous! I modified it a bit as follows: 1) I read the reviews of others and took the advice given to put the peaches in a colander before tossing them in lemon juice. Note: I used fresh peaches. 2) I also tossed the peaches in 1/4 tsp of pure almond extract. 3) I substituted 1/2 cup of white sugar for 1/2 cup of brown sugar. 4)I also didn't toss the peaches with the flour mixture until I was ready to pour it in the crust. I feel that's essential because it didn't have time to sit and make a lot of water before being put in the oven. 5) Last modification for me was that I left out the nutmeg. I don't really care for the taste of nutmeg and it's easy for nutmeg to overpower whatever it touches. I made this with the French Pastry Crust recipe found on this site. All these things together made this a wonderful pie that wasn't runny and looked great. In future pies, I may increase the amount of almond extract and lessen the amount of cinnamon in my next pie but make no mistake - this pie was a hit!

I made only half a pie in a small ceramic dish because I live alone. This recipe halved well, despite the requirement of one egg (I simply skipped sealing with the egg and it was fine). This was great, I'll make it again!

This was my first time making peach pie and it hit the spot. I used a homemade crust and this is going to be my default recipe!

I just made this pie, and it was soooo good. Only thing I did differently was add a bit of vanilla to the peaches. I will make this one again.

it was very good. I did half the amount of lemon juice and i think it brought out the flavor more. lemon juice is pretty potent and I didnt wanna oer do it. I also made my pie crust from scratch and added some of the peach juice into the mixture witch made it taste amazing. I also did half the amount of nutmeg and substituted it for a little bit of brown sugar. With a dab of whipped cream when it was all cooked. My family really enjoyed it...

This was the first time I have ever made peach pie, so Im sure I can improve but it was wonderful!! I had to use frozen peaches, our store had no fresh ones! I dont know if that makes a difference or not but either way, it was delicious ;)

everyone loved this pie , except my mom, who thought it was okay. I'm still giving it 5 stars, because she was comparing it to a peach pie she had from a bakery, that she fell in love with. Now any peach pie that is not the same, is not good to her!

DELICIOUS! Everyone I had taste test this was raving about it even those who had never even heard of peach pie before. Easy recipe. I used canned peaches since peaches aren't currently in season. About 2 19oz (peach weight) cans and one of the regular sized cans makes 5 cups. I let the peaches drain in a colander (sprinkled with just a little lemon juice - know these peaches will be sweet so I wasn't too concerned about sourness and don't even know if this step is necessary for canned peaches) while I prepped the pie crust. I let the pie crust sit in the fridge while I mixed the peaches. I read reviews and only modified this way: added about 1 tsp vanilla, decreased nutmeg to about 1/4 tsp, added about 1 tsp more flour, used 1/4c brown sugar in place of the white - decreased total sugar about 1/4 cup (because I used canned peaches that were already soaked in heavy syrup). I made it with a lattice crust and will do that again. I wouldn't dip the fork tines in egg to seal it with again though because I think it made my crust darker in those areas. Did brush the whole crust with an egg wash and poked holes with the fork all over the bottom crust to avoid air bubbles. It came out sooo scrumptious that I am craving a piece right now while I'm writing this! It tasted best as it settled (a couple days) and warmed up as others said, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. HIGHLY recommend using Ruth's Grandma's Pie Crust recipe for this (and everything else for that matter). EDIT: DEFINIT
