INGREDIENTS
Crust | |
1 | cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 | teaspoon salt |
1/3 | cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening |
2 | to 3 tablespoons cold water |
Filling | |
4 | cups quartered peeled peaches (8 to 10 medium) |
1/2 | cup granulated sugar |
1/2 | teaspoon ground nutmeg |
2 | tablespoons whipping cream |
1 | egg |
Topping | |
1/2 | cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 | cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 | teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 | teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 | cup butter or margarine, softened |
DIRECTIONS
In medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour and the salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary). | |
Gather pastry into a ball. On lightly floured surface, shape pastry into flattened disk. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. (If refrigerated longer, let dough soften slightly before rolling.) | |
Heat oven to 425°F. On lightly floured surface, roll pastry with floured rolling pin into round 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch glass pie plate. Fold pastry into quarters; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; press edge with tines of fork or flute if desired. | |
Place peaches in pastry-lined plate. Mix granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg; sprinkle over peaches. In small bowl, beat whipping cream and egg with fork or wire whisk until blended; pour over peaches. In another small bowl, mix topping ingredients with fork until crumbly; sprinkle over peaches. http://www.pillsbury.com/Recipes/ShowRecipe.aspx?rid=32177 | |
