Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
- 4 ½ cups fresh sliced peaches
Instructions
- Peel, pit and slice peaches. Set aside.
- In a saucepan on medium heat, combine granulated sugar, water, cornstarch and lemon juice. Whisk it constantly until it comes to a boil. It will thicken quickly, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove pan from the heat and stir in the peaches. Add the vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg and stir to combine.
- Let the filling cool completely. At that point you can add it to your prepared pie crust.
Notes
- Use this peach pie filling for my Peach Crumble Pie recipe.
- After filling cools completely, you can freeze the peach pie filling to bake with later. Go to my post about how to freeze your filling in a pie pan: https://thatbreadlady.com/freezer-peach-pie-filling/
