Cherry Peach Pie Recipe Directions:

Add flour, sugar, and salt to the bowl of a food processor or a large mixing bowl.

Pulse a few times or whisk to combine. Add butter and pulse until the dough is crumbly and the butter is in pea-sized pieces, or use a pastry blender or two knives to cut butter into the flour.

Add half the ice water and pulse or stir to combine.

Add the remaining water a little at a time until the dough comes together in a shaggy ball.

Remove the dough to a work surface and knead very lightly just until the dough forms a smooth ball.

Divide in half, flatten into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Have ready a 9 or 10” pie dish or cast-iron skillet.

Lightly flour a work surface and place half of the chilled dough on it.

Roll out the dough, applying even pressure with a rolling pin, into a circle 2 inches larger than the pie dish.

If the dough cracks, let it warm up for a few minutes before continuing.

Patch any holes or large cracks with excess dough.

Loosely roll the dough around the rolling pin and transfer it to the pie dish.

Trim the edges of the dough to have a ¾” overhang.

Poke dough all over with a fork, and chill for 30 minutes.

Place the second dough round on the work surface and roll it out as above.

Cut dough into ¾” strips.

Place half the dough strips 1-2” apart on a lightly floured cookie sheet, then weave the remaining dough strips through them in a basket-weave pattern.

Chill the lattice for 30 minutes.

Make the Pie Filling:

Preheat oven to 400˚F.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and prepare an ice-water bath.

With a paring knife, score the bottom of each peach with an X.

With a slotted spoon, carefully lower peaches into the water and blanch for 2-3 minutes.

Remove to the ice water bath to cool.

Peel skins off peaches with a paring knife and cut into ½” slices.

In a large mixing bowl, combine peaches, cherries, 1 cup of sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon.

Pour into chilled pie shell. Slide lattice crust off cookie sheet on top of filled pie shell.

If the lattice and crust are very cold and brittle, let them warm up for a few minutes.

Fold overhanging dough of the bottom crust over the edges of the lattice.

Crimp edges or press with the tines of a fork.

Brush the lattice with egg wash and sprinkle with the remaining two tablespoons of sugar.

Bake 30 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350˚F and bake for 30-40 minutes more or until browned and bubbly.

Remove to a rack and cool 1 hour.

Serve with homemade whipped cream.
