Instructions
Instructions
- Brown the butter: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until golden brown and fragrant with brown specks. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
- Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, combine peaches, strawberries, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and the browned butter. Toss gently until evenly coated.
- Assemble the pie: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 9-inch pie plate with one crust. Add the fruit filling, then top with the second crust or create a lattice design. Trim and crimp the edges.
- Bake: Brush the crust with the egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired. Bake for 20 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 35–40 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
- Cool and serve: Let the pie cool for at least 3 hours before slicing to allow the filling to set. Serve with vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream.
Notes
Use ripe but firm peaches for the best texture. If using frozen fruit, thaw and drain thoroughly before mixing. Cooling the pie completely before slicing helps prevent a runny filling.
