Peach Pie

Who doesn't love peaches in the summer?  It is one fruit I look forward to each summer.  I love going to the farmer's market and buying a large batch of seconds.  I then get to spend some of the afternoon cleaning and preparing the peaches for use.  Some, I'll dry others freeze.  I also am able to make delicious peach desserts.  These fresh over ripe peaches are bursting with flavor and goodness.

My son made the peach pie this past weekend.  He started with a ready made gluten free pie crust.  They come two to a pack at Whole Foods.  They are a good homemade substitute.  Then fill the pie crust with pealed slices peaches.  The number it take depends on the peaches.  8- 10 peaches is not uncommon.  pour 1/3 cup honey and 1 T tapioca starch.   Gently stir around.  Use the second crust to make a top.  make sure that there are air hole is in it and bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes.  Thats it.  It is so easy.

I was unable to take a picture of the pie because it evaporated very fast.  Needless to say it was a very big hit.
