  • Total Time: 4 hours 30 minutes
  • Yield: 8 slices

Ingredients

  • Fresh peaches – 4 to 5 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
  • Granulated sugar – ¾ cup
  • Cornstarch – 3 tablespoons
  • Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon
  • Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon
  • Sweetened condensed milk – 1 cup
  • Heavy cream – 1 cup (whipped for topping)
  • Pie crust (homemade or store-bought) – 1 prepared crust
  • Optional: fresh mint leaves or additional peach slices for garnish

Instructions

  1. Start by peeling and slicing the fresh peaches. To make peeling easier, dip peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer to ice water. Slice peaches evenly and set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  3. Pour the warm peach filling into your prepared pie crust. Spread evenly and allow it to cool to room temperature. For an extra creamy texture, you can fold in some whipped sweetened condensed milk into the peach filling.
  4. Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently spread or pipe the whipped cream over the cooled peach filling. Garnish with fresh peach slices or mint leaves for a beautiful presentation.
  5. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2-3 hours before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the filling to set perfectly, ensuring every slice is creamy and delicious.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze the pie—cover it tightly with plastic wrap or foil. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving for the best texture and flavor.
  • You can substitute canned peaches, drained well, for fresh peaches.
  • Use a gluten-free pie crust if needed for a gluten-free version.
  • This pie can be prepared a day in advance; assemble and chill overnight, then add whipped topping just before serving.
