Peachy Summer Day

I've had this recipe for homemade peach pie since I moved to Georgia two years ago. 


Featured in Southern Lady magazine


With a few weeks of summer left, it seemed like the perfect time to try it out.


These tree-ripened peaches were so sweet and juicy. I had a hard time resisting the temptation to pop a piece in my mouth for every one I peeled and chopped. 



There's nothing quite like homemade pie dough. 



Oh my, how delicious!


A dollop of fresh whipped almond cream, made from scratch, and a sprig of mint.


Here's a slice for you to enjoy on this peachy summer day.

It looks perfect! We sure ate a lot of peach pie when I was growing up in Georgia with peach trees near by!

There's nothing like a Georgia peach! We don't bother with peaches unless they're from Georgia.

And you're right, a from-scratch crust is so much better, even though I admit to buying them sometime. Just look at those juices peeping from your double crust! That one photo alone makes me hungry for a piece of your pie. I've never thought about adding almond extract to whipped cream but what a perfect combination for a peach pie!

Oh Nel. That pie looks scrumptious. Oh Lordy Lord, I'd have a hard time stopping from eating all of it! ha! Nice job! Susan

Wow, Nel I can almost taste that gorgeous pie! Great job on a classic. Your flowers look beautiful on the patio. I think I'll have my piece there. ♥

Oh Nel, your peach pie looks so good. And that homemade crust! I was craving peaches after seeing this, so I bought some peach preserves at the store today for my toast. : )

There is nothing as good as a Georgia peach for sure. Homemade crust - awesome. And whipped almond cream. sandie

Oh my, but that is a gorgeous pie. It sounds just delicious! I don't ever get to making a peach pie before I have eaten the fruit. I love them so much.

Yum! I am going to make a plum pie. My friend has a plum tree, she let me come pick some plums because she can not use all of them.
:-) Your photos are great.
