Luscious and creamy, I have never regretted making two of these at the same time.  You won't either.

Ingredients

  • 1 refrigerated pie crust I use the Pillsbury Crust found in the refrigerated section

For the Filling

  • 3 Cups only 3 sliced fresh peaches - cut into mouth sized bites
  • 1 Cup white granulated sugar
  • Cup Sour Cream
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 2 Tbs all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp Real Vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp real almond extract
  • 1 inch grated fresh ginger

For the Crumble

  • ½ Cup COLD sweet cream unsalted butter
  • ½ Cup Dark Brown Sugar
  • Cup All Purpose Flour
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon
  • ½ Cup Chopped Pecans

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350.
  • Line a 9” pie plate with the refrigerated pie crust and crimp on the edges.
  • Scatter the peach pieces into the bottom of the pie crust.
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine the sugar, sour cream, egg yolks, flour, vanilla, almond and fresh ginger and mix well. This will make a thick custard like sauce. Pour this over the peaches.
  • Bake this pie on the center rack of your oven until the custard is set (see tips and tricks noted below). The top of the pie should be browned. This takes about 30-50 minutes depending on several factors.
  • Mix the crumble: In a food processor or by hand (see tips and tricks), pulse the butter, sugar, flour and cinnamon. Mix in the pecan pieces by hand. Set this mix aside.
  • Remove the pie from the oven when set and sprinkle the crumble over the top of the pie - more or less depending on how you like crumble. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
  • Cool on a rack or folded towel until cooled to warm. Serve warm with cold good quality vanilla ice cream. Refrigerate when cooled.

Notes

So, the crumble if you  make according to the recipe will more than cover the top of your pie.  If you like LESS crumble (what kind of monster are you?) - lol - anyway, if you like LESS then just use less and save the rest and put it on your pancakes or something.
