I’ve been in the mood to bake – a PIE! When I discovered that we had a new spice at the shop where I put in a few hours a month, it gave me just the idea I needed to grab a mood fix! It’s called Georgia Peach Spice and the ingredients are Vanilla Bean Sugar, cinnamon, lemon peel, cloves and allspice – rather like Pumpkin Pie Spice but not exactly. Don’t let this one pass you by while peaches can still be found, fresh and sweet.
It received rave reviews from my man Dan and he’s a peach pie authority, especially one with a crumble topping. I think apple crumble is his favorite or wait…maybe it’s pecan but he is quickly making this sweet treat disappear, and I’m good with that!
I just love the way the peach juices bubble up from under the topping and ooze out onto the crust. Making pie crust , as you may have read before is not my speciality, so I purchase pre-made crusts – one of these days…maybe I’ll try and perfect it. For now I’m going to eat a slice of this splendid peach pie and worry about that another time.
