Deep Dish Peach Streusel Pie

"This is VERY loosely based on some of the pie instructions in How to Cook Everything. I've done a lot of adjusting and tweaking. A food processor is used to make the pie dough. I like the filling with all brown sugar, but you can substitute all white sugar, or use a combination. The topping is best with brown sugar. I prefer walnuts for the topping, but any kind of nut is okay. Note: after some experimentation, I've adjusted the streusel."

  1. Yummy pie! Pastry is flakey, like the brown sugar in the filling, and delicious topping. Would easily serve 8. Thanks for recipe.
     
  2. Although peaches obviously aren't at their peak around here, I managed to fine some that were OK so went ahead with making this pie! I do like making mine in a 9-inch deep dish pie plate (or bigger!) &, with you, I do like using brown sugar! With the topping, this pie was exceptionally tasty, & I know that come the peak of the peach season, it'll be outstanding, so I'm gonna be keeping this recipe around! Thanks for sharing it!
