Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Unbaked 9-inch pie crust
- 4 large Fresh ripe peaches
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 30 grams All-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 3 units Large eggs
- 240 milliliters Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges as desired. Set aside.
Peel the peaches, remove the pits, and cut them into thin slices. Arrange the peach slices evenly in the prepared pie crust.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, whisking continuously until the custard is smooth and lump-free.
Pour the custard mixture over the sliced peaches in the pie crust, ensuring the liquid fills in all the gaps between the peaches.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the top of the pie for added flavor.
Carefully transfer the pie to the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown. You can test doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 1 hour. The custard will continue to set as it cools.
Serve the Hill Country Peach Custard Pie at room temperature or chilled. Optionally, garnish with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
