Peach Pie from DessertNowDinnerLater.com

Since peach season is here (and almost over) in Utah I thought it only fitting to make a peach pie. Now, if you read my post for Blueberry Crumb Bars, you know how I think it’s a tragedy to use fresh fruit in desserts. I just love fresh fruit for snacking and typically gobble it up before it gets used in a dessert recipe, so this recipe actually uses frozen peaches, but fresh are fine too, which works well since they are in season.

One of my favorite things to do with fruit pies, is to put streusel on top. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE pie crust, but a crunchy streusel is just as delicious to me! It’s like putting granola on top of my fruit and yogurt. So good!

This recipe is great for the summer or holidays because the cinnamon makes it homey and scrumptious! And I could totally eat pie any day of the week, because it’s one of my favorite desserts! I hope you get the chance to try this peach pie sometime soon!
