Ingredients
Scale
Pie Crust:
- 1 double pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
Fruit Filling:
- 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
- 2 cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (browned)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Brown the Butter: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until golden brown and fragrant, about 5–7 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Prepare the Pie: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out one pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie dish. In a bowl, combine strawberries, peaches, sugars, cornstarch, cinnamon, salt, vanilla, lemon juice, and brown butter. Pour into the crust.
- Top the Pie: Add the second crust in a lattice pattern or as a full top crust with slits. Seal and crimp edges. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake and Serve: Bake for 50–60 minutes until golden and bubbly. Cool for 2–3 hours before slicing.
Notes
- Frozen fruit can be substituted for fresh; thaw and drain well.
- Brown butter enhances the fruity sweetness with a nutty richness.
