A flaky crust and sweet streusel topping make this peach pie extra special.

Prep Time: 35 Min
Total Time: 2 Hr 30 Min
Makes:8 servings

INGREDIENTS

Crust
1cup all-purpose flour
1/2teaspoon salt
1/3cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening
2to 3 tablespoons cold water

Filling
4cups quartered peeled peaches (8 to 10 medium)
1/2cup granulated sugar
1/2teaspoon ground nutmeg
2tablespoons whipping cream
1egg

Topping
1/2cup all-purpose flour
1/4cup packed brown sugar
1/4teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4cup 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.
