Peach Pie
One of my favorite things from childhood was eating fresh peaches from our peach tree. Back in Oklahoma, I had planted a peach pit it in our garden and it thrived! The tree was huge and just outside my bedroom window. We enjoyed sliced fresh peaches with sugar, peach ice cream, and peach pie. Mom always made the best peach pies. I could never understand why people frequently added cinnamon to their peach pie. It covered up the peachy flavor. Fast forward to grown up Jenny and her house in Nevada. We planted our own peach tree a few years ago and it finally produced a nice crop of fruit. I devoured a few peaches right away, then we peeled and sliced the rest. We froze a bunch for later and made two pies. We even had sliced peaches and crepes for breakfast the next day! These pies were as simple as could be. No cinnamon. No almond extract. Just peaches, sugar, and tapioca to thicken the juices. And they were divine! Ingredients for one 9-inch pie 4 cups peeled and slic
