Lazy Peach Pie
A standard, for me that is a 9.5" pie, crust for a double crusted pie. Spray your pie pan and place the bottom crust in the pan.
Now is where the lazy part comes in.
2 large can sliced peaches, drained (I used Mission Pride which is a local store brand)
Pour the drained peaches in a large bowl.
Add in:
1/2 C. sugar (these peaches were in heavy syrup so you don't need much)
1/2 C. corn starch
1 tsp. ground cinnamon (I always add about 8 good twists from my cinnamon mill as well)
1/4 tsp. or a smidgen more of fresh grated nutmeg
1 tsp. real vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. real almond extract
a tiny bit of salt
Mix this well but gently so you don't tear the peach slices to pieces. Pour into the prepared bottom crust. Dot the top of the fruit filling with a couple dabs of butter. Roll out and decorate the top crust and put it in place. Seal and flute the edges.
Bake at 425F for 45 minutes and you have yourself a very pretty and tasty Lazy Peach Pie. Give it a whirl and see how you like it.
