Delight your taste buds with this Creamy Open Faced Peach Pie, a luscious dessert that combines the natural sweetness of ripe, juicy peaches with a velvety cream cheese filling. This no-fuss treat starts with a golden, flaky pre-made pie crust, topped with a cloud-like mixture of whipped cream and softened cream cheese for a delightfully creamy texture. Fresh peach slices are elegantly arranged in a stunning fan pattern and brushed with a honey-citrus glaze, adding a glossy finish and a hint of tangy sweetness. Perfect for summer gatherings or as an elegant dessert, this pie is surprisingly easy to make, requiring just 30 minutes of prep. Chill it to perfection, slice it up, and savor a slice of sunshine with every bite!
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If using a pre-made pie crust, prepare it by following the package instructions. Prick the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling, then bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden. Allow to cool completely.
Wash and peel the peaches. Slice them into thin wedges and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whip the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar using a hand mixer until smooth and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Spread this creamy filling evenly over the cooled pie crust.
In a small saucepan, combine honey, cornstarch, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Heat over medium-low, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens into a glaze (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Arrange the peach slices in a circular fan pattern over the cream filling, starting from the outer edge and working towards the center.
Using a pastry brush, gently glaze the peach slices with the honey mixture to give them a shiny, sweet finish.
Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving. Slice and enjoy your Creamy Open Faced Peach Pie!
