The hint of vanilla in the custard enhances the peaches' juicy flavor, while optional garnishes of powdered sugar and ground cinnamon add a finishing touch of elegance. With just 20 minutes of prep and simple, pantry-friendly ingredients, this Peach Custard Pie is an effortless yet impressive centerpiece for any gathering. Perfect served chilled or at room temperature, it guarantees smiles at every slice.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pie crust and carefully press it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess edges and prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until fully incorporated. This will form your custard base.
Arrange the sliced peaches evenly in the prepared pie crust.
Pour the custard mixture over the peaches, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Place the pie on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is slightly golden.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack. This will help the custard firm up.
Optional: Lightly dust the pie with powdered sugar and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon before serving for an extra touch of sweetness and flavor.
Slice the Peach Custard Pie into 8 pieces and serve at room temperature or chilled. Enjoy!
