    This old fashioned Peach Cream Pie recipe is made with fresh peaches, a sweet cream filling and topped with sliced almonds. A very beautiful and easy pie!

    I recently acquired a collection of recipe books called "Women's Day Encyclopedia of Cookery." There are 23 books all together and were originally published in 1966. I have the 1979 editions and am currently going through volume 1.

    There are so many interesting recipes in these books. This Peach Cream Pie with Almonds was the first one I tried. This recipe is just perfect for this time of the year as peaches are perfectly ripe.

    A bird's eye view of a peach cream pie.

    What Ingredients do I need to make this Peach Cream Pie?

    • Pie Crust - You will need pastry for a 1 crust 9-inch pie. I halved the pie pastry from this recipe. You can also use a ready-made pie crust
    • Sliced Peaches - fresh is best for this dish. Frozen peaches are too watery
    • Sugar - for sweetness
    • Flour - a bit of all purpose flour helps firm up the filling
    • Nutmeg - because it pairs so well with peaches!
    • Whipping Cream - you can also use ½ cup milk and ½ cup whipping cream if you would like to lighten the recipe.
    • Sliced Almonds - they give a nice crunchy texture to the dish and also look so pretty scattered on top!

    Ingredients
     
     

    • 1 pie shell or pastry for a 1 crust 9-inch pie
    • 3 ½ cups fresh peaches sliced
    • ⅔ cup granulated sugar
    • ¼ cup all purpose flour
    • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
    • ¼ cup almonds sliced and blanched

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare pie shell by lining it with parchment paper and filling it with baking weights ( I use dried beans).
    • Par bake the pie shell for 10 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment paper and bake for another 10 minutes.
    • Remove the pie shell from the oven and cool on a wire rack. Turn the oven heat up to 400°F.
    • Combine the peaches, sugar, flour and nutmeg in a bowl. Pour into the pie shell and pour the whipping cream over the peaches.
    • Bake for 35 minutes, remove pie from the oven and sprinkle top with almonds. Return the pie to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes, or until the almonds are lightly browned.
    • Let the pie cool completely so that the cream sets. Cover leftovers and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

    Notes

    1. You can substitute the peaches for other fruits (plums or berries).
    2. I suggest using fresh peaches rather than frozen as they tend to have a lot of water to them.
    3. You can lighten the amount of calories in the cream by using ½ cup whipping cream and ½ cup homogenized (3.25%) milk instead of 1 cup whipping cream.
