Tips for the Perfect Peach Crumble Pie
- Use Ripe Peaches: Fresh, ripe peaches will give your pie the best flavor. If fresh peaches aren’t in season, canned or frozen peaches work as well—just drain them thoroughly.
- Pre-Bake the Crust: Blind bake your crust for a few minutes before adding the filling to prevent a soggy bottom.
- Balance the Sweetness: Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of your peaches. Ripe peaches might need less sugar, while tart peaches could need a little extra.
- Keep the Butter Cold: For a perfectly crumbly topping, use cold butter when mixing your crumble ingredients.
- Serve with Ice Cream: A scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream takes this dessert to the next level.
