Summer, like autumn, calls for us all to whip out our maternity-wear jeans and cookbooks filled with all our sinful and dastardly cravings—a stash of peach pie recipes surely at the top of the pile. You’d think peach pie would be kicked into the dirt at this point, it being many people’s go-to dessert when wanting something fresh and easy to make. And by fresh, we mean the kind of fruit that bursts with a slight citrus-y tartness, yet sweet enough to force you into filling those cavities you’ve been avoiding.
But a peach dessert doesn’t have to mean just plain old peach pie—not that we’re complaining. Sure, there are a lot of ways you can zip up a “crusty” old recipe, like the increasingly common practice of adding lemon juice to the filling. It’s just that with a fruit as versatile as peaches, it’s almost a disservice to pick the easy route. We’ve got everything from peach pie crumbles, to tarts, bars and rolls to convince you there’s more to peaches than meets the eye. Okay, we have a couple traditional peach pie recipes in here, because sometimes simple is best.
