Bake this Peachy Cranberry Pie for a deliciously memorable treat that will have everyone asking for seconds!
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced peaches, cranberries, granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cornstarch, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon. Gently toss until the fruit is evenly coated.
Roll out one pie crust over a 9-inch pie pan. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges, leaving about a 1-inch overhang.
Pour the peach and cranberry filling into the crust. Spread it out evenly, then dot the top with cubes of butter.
Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Trim, fold, and crimp the edges to seal the pie. Alternatively, cut the second crust into strips and create a lattice pattern over the filling.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the top crust evenly with the egg wash, and sprinkle coarse sugar on top for added texture and sweetness, if desired.
Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Peachy Cranberry Pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired!
