Yummy Homemade Peach Pie

Our peach tree is just loaded with so many peaches that they are falling all over the place. I picked a few and thought I would bake a Peach Pie for my husband.

Here is a quick and simple recipe for a wonderful peach pie!

Simple Peach Pie

1 1/4 cups sugar

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced

2 tablespoons butter

Pastry for 9 inch pie

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine sugar, flour and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Stir in peach slices and fold to coat with sugar and flour mixture. Pour into 9 inch unbaked pie shell. Dot with butter. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes until crust is golden brown.

I served it warm with vanilla ice cream!
