A summer dessert blending sweet peaches and strawberries with rich brown butter, offering a delicate balance of savory and sweet. Simple to make with a flaky crust, perfect for brunch or a homemade treat.
1 pre-made or homemade pie crust
4 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
1 pint strawberries, hulled and halved
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
1 tablespoon turbinado sugar, optional
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a baking sheet on the oven rack to preheat.
Roll out the pie crust and press into a 9-inch pan. Trim edges, flute, and chill.
In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat until golden brown. Remove from heat and add peaches, strawberries, lemon juice, granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla. Toss to coat.
Pour filling into the chilled crust. If using a lattice top, weave crust strips over the filling. Otherwise, cover with a top crust and cut slits for steam release.
Brush egg wash over the crust and sprinkle turbinado sugar if using. Place on the preheated baking sheet and bake for 45-50 minutes, until golden and bubbly.
Use a pre-made crust for time-saving. Chill the crust to prevent it from shrinking during baking. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
