Ingredients

• 1 pre-made or homemade, 9-inch Pie crust
• 4 medium, peeled, pitted, and sliced Fresh peaches
• 2 tablespoons Brandy
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon, melted Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

If using a homemade pie crust, roll it out and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Crimp the edges and chill the crust in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, toss the sliced peaches with the brandy and let them sit for 10 minutes to absorb the flavor.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, and salt. This will serve as your dry custard base.

Step 5

In another mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Gradually stir in the dry custard base until smooth.

Step 6

Arrange the brandied peach slices evenly in the prepared pie crust. Pour the custard mixture over the peaches, ensuring they are submerged but not overcrowded.

Step 7

Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the top of the custard and drizzle melted butter across the surface.

Step 8

Place the pie in the oven on the center rack and bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until the custard is set and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. To best enjoy the flavors, chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Step 10

Slice and serve the Brandied Peach Custard Pie with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
