Perfect Peach Pie

Step 1

Prepare the pastry and line your 9 inch pie plate. With a fork print the pastry on the bottom and sides, and brush with the egg white/water mixture.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Step 3

Slice peaches in a large bowl and mix with the lemon juice, sugar, spices, and tapioca. Let's set 10 minutes. Drained canned fruit maybe used retaining 1/3 cup fruit juice in the mixture.

Step 4

Spoon the fruit into the pastry and dot with butter.

Step 5

Bake 10 minutes at 425 degrees; reduce heat and bake an additional 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 6

Check in the last 10-15 minutes and add foil strips or crust cover if outer edge is browning too fast.

Step 7

Cool on wire rack, serve warm or cold; goes great with ice cream.
