And since this wasn't any 'ole peach pie, I decided it called for a different kind of peach. I found these 'Saturn' or 'White Donut' peaches at the store and learned that they are a sweet peach with a little taste of almond. I only had four of these peaches, so I also used one of the yellow peaches which I thought would give the pie more color.
The crust was easy enough to make and surprisingly didn't require pre-baking. The filling was very different with two eggs, sour cream, some honey, dark brown sugar, salt, and two tablespoons of flour. The topping was a normal crumb topping, but I decided to add some toasted pecans and some cinnamon because those just seem to go hand-in-hand with peaches in my book.
The result? Three thumbs up at our house. Although it looked a little eggy when I cut the first slice, the filling was creamy and moist, but not overly sweet. The topping gave it just the right amount of crunch and sweetness. My son ate half the pie in probably 10 minutes. He thought it was that good.
