Take your classic peach pie to the next level with a sweet streusel topping and a hint of ginger spice.
Ingredients
Pie:
- 1 pie crust
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (adjust amount depending on sweetness of peaches)
- 3 tablespoons corn starch
- ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- 4 pounds peaches, peeled, pitted and cut into chunks
Streusel Topping:
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup old-fashioned oats
- ⅓ cup crystallized ginger, minced
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and diced
Preparation
Move oven rack to the lowest level and preheat to 375°F.
Blind bake pie crust for 10 minutes and remove from oven.
To prepare the streusel, whisk the flour, brown sugar, oats, crystallized ginger and salt together in a small bowl. Cut in the butter, mixing until coarse, pea-sized crumbs form.
To make pie filling, whisk together sugar, corn starch and spices until combined. Toss gently with peaches in a large bowl.
Place peach mixture in a large pot on medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula to prevent sticking, then simmer for 5 minutes, until liquid has thickened and the peaches are tender but still retain their shape.
Scoop peach filling into pie crust and spread evenly. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top and bake in oven for 20–25 minutes, until the streusel is golden brown and filling is bubbling.
Remove pie from oven and let cool at least 2 hours before cutting and serving.
