Making this pie made me feel ultra feminine so I decided to call it Girlie Pie. There's something about peaches and strawberries; they belong with pink bows and ponies. (Maybe it's just me.) The first time I made this pie, the flavor was great but I felt like it needed a lot more filling so this time, I doubled it, and it was wonderful. My brother claims, it's the best pie he's ever had. Just don't tell him what I named it.

Girlie Pie
1 recipe double pie crust ( I used this recipe but use your favorite if you have one.)
- 7 cups peeled and sliced ripe peaches
- 3 cup hulled and halved strawberries
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons AP flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 tablespoon turbanado
1. Toss the peaches and strawberries with white sugar and brown sugar and let it rest for 15 minutes. You can roll out pie crust at this time.
2. Drain (save the liquid/syrup, I use it for pancaked and waffles) and toss with flour, cornstarch, and cinnamon.
3. Spoon into bottom crust. Dot with butter and place top crust on, securing edges.
4. Cut vents in the crust and sprinkle with turbanado.
5. Bake for 45 minutes.

Sounds amazing. I don't think I've had peach and strawberry pie, ever. I'll make this for my dad this weekend. |

I made your pie over the weekend. As I am determined to try not to use hydrogenated fats, I used butter instead of shortening for the crust. I didn't freeze the dough long enough and I couldn't roll it out properly! Hence, my funny looking pie: http://www.flickr.com/photos/28826609@N05/ |
