These pictures reflect half a recipe, made in a 9x9 inch pan
Ingredients
- ¾ c. butter, softened
- 2 egg yolks
- 1-1/4 c. unbleached all-purpose white flour
- 1 t. white sugar
- ¼ t. salt
- 1 Tbls. vanilla or brandy
- 6 cups peaches (9-10 fresh), peeled and sliced
- 2-1/4 c. white sugar
- whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (for serving)
Topping
- 2 eggs
- ½ c. heavy whipping cream
- 2 Tbls. white sugar
Instructions
Crust: Mix ingredients and press into a 9 x 13-inch pan, pressing up one inch on all sides of the pan.
Fruit Mixture: If using fresh peaches, to easily peel peaches, put them whole into boiling water for 1 minute if they are reasonably ripe. If not reasonably ripe, boil a little longer. Remove and peel should come off easily. Then slice peaches, discarding the pits. Or you can use frozen, thawed.
Mix peach slices and sugar; pour on top of crust. Dot with a little butter (not necessary)
Topping: Beat eggs and sugar, add cream. Pour over peaches.
Bake 1 hour at 375 degrees. Do not over bake.
NOTE: You could substitute frozen peaches, just drain well and pat dry.
