Fresh peaches tend to be quite a bit juicier than grocery store peaches. Some of the juice will end up spilling over, so put a foil-lined jelly pan on the shelf below the pie to catch the drips.
Prepare dough for two crusts
- Combine 2 1/4 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 teaspoons sugar in a food processor and pulse briefly to mix.
- Add 2 sticks of cold unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons, and pulse until the mixture is the consistency of oatmeal.
- Remove dough and sprinkle in about 6 tablespoons of ice water, more if necessary, until you can form the dough into a ball. Press into a small disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
Make the filling
- Peel 8 peaches by scoring the skin all the way around with a sharp knife and dipping into boiling water for a minute, then into ice water, one or two at a time.
- Slice the peaches into a bowl and toss with1 tablespoon lemon juice. In a separate bowl combine 1 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and a dash (1/8 teaspoon) each of salt and nutmeg. Add this mixture to the peaches and toss until evenly blended.
Assemble the pie
-
Halve the dough and return one half to the refrigerator. Roll out the other half into a 10-inch round, enough to cover your pie plate and the edges. Use the roller to transfer the dough to the pie plate.
- With a slotted spoon, add the peaches, leaving excess juice behind, and dot with 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Roll out and add the top crust, pressing the edges with your fingers. Trim off excess dough and make several vent slits in the top crust with a sharp knife. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons sugar over the crust.
- Bake in a 450-degree oven for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake another 30 minutes or until top is golden brown. Allow to cool somewhat before serving.
