Homemade Peach and Blueberry Pie
Yields
one 9 inch pie
Ingredients
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks), cold and cut into cubes
2 tablespoons sugar
¾ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
5 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons ice cold water
For the Filling
6 ripe peaches
1 cup fresh blueberries
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
½ to 2/3 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon to top crust before baking
Prep
Bake Time: 60-70 minutes
Directions

To prepare the crust, whisk flour, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Add the cold butter and work it into the flour mixture with your fingers. Some pieces of butter will turn into the size of peas. Stir ice cold water and vinegar together in a small bowl. Now, create a small well in the center of the flour mixture and pour the water and vinegar into it. Carefully bring the dough together and distribute moisture all throughout. Lightly flour a board or work surface and place the dough on it. Divide the dough in two and gently knead both pieces into two disks. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. Onto the filling!

Slice peaches lengthwise and place in a medium bowl along with blueberries. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, spices, and sugar. Pour this mixture on top of the fruit and gently toss together to coat. Stir in the lemon juice. Place this in the fridge. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and place a rack in the center of the oven. Take one disk of dough from the fridge and roll it out onto a lightly floured board until it’s about 13 inches round. Be sure it doesn’t stick to the floured board! Gently lift the dough off of the board and center it in the 9 inch baking dish. Place this in the fridge while you get the other disk of dough out and repeat the same process with this piece as you did the other one.

When the dough is rolled out to 13 inches, remove the fruit and bottom crust in baking dish out of the fridge. Pour the fruit filling into the pie dish. Carefully take the other 13 inches of rolled out dough and drape atop the fruit in the pie dish. With a small knife, trim off the extra dough leaving about ¾ inch hanging over. With your fingers, press together the top and bottom crusts around the entire perimeter. Use a fork or your fingers to crimp all around the edges of the dough. Cut five small slits in the top of the pie crust and lightly brush with beaten egg. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar topping and place in the oven. Bake for 15 minutes then reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees and bake for another 45-55 minutes. When the crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbling, it’s ready. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream! Enjoy!
