Ingredients
  

For the crust
  • 3 pieces refrigerated pie crusts Use cold and keep the extra crust chilled.
For the filling
  • 6 cups sliced peaches (fresh or frozen) Fresh peaches in summer taste brightest, but frozen works great.
  • 1 cup sugar Balances the tartness.
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar Adds caramel notes.
  • 1/2 cup butter (1 stick) Use unsalted butter for better control of salt.
  • 1/2 cup water Helps the filling simmer into syrup.
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice Brightens the peaches.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract For warmth and depth.
  • 1 tsp cinnamon Classic pairing with peach.
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg Subtle, cozy spice.
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch (optional for thicker filling) Stir in if you prefer a jammy center.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a saucepan, add the peaches, sugars, butter, water, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Bring to a gentle simmer for 5–7 minutes, stirring to melt the sugars into the fruit.
  3. If a thicker filling is desired, stir in the cornstarch and cook for another minute until it thickens slightly.
  4. Roll out the first pie crust and press it into the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes to set.
  5. Pour half of the warm peach mixture over the baked crust.
  6. Lay the second crust on top, slightly overlapping for a rustic look. Bake for another 10 minutes.
  7. Spoon the remaining peach mixture over the second crust, then tear or cut the final crust into pieces and lay on top for a rustic finish.
  8. Sprinkle the top with sugar and cinnamon, and brush with melted butter.
  9. Bake for 25–30 minutes until the top is golden and flaky, and the juices bubble out.

Notes

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. This dish is great for potlucks, family dinners, or just a cozy night in. For variations, try adding chopped nuts or flavored extracts.
