How to Make Grilled Peach Pie

  1. Prepare the grill: Arrange medium-hot coals on one side of your charcoal grill, leaving the other side empty for indirect heat. Alternatively, preheat your gas grill to medium heat.
  2. Check grill temperature: Ensure the empty side of the grill registers as medium heat (around 350°F/175°C) using a grill thermometer.
  3. Prep the peaches: Brush 6-8 large peach halves (about 4 cups sliced peaches) with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  4. Grill the peaches: Place peach halves, cut-side down, directly over the hot coals for 3 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  5. Slice the peaches: Cut the grilled peach halves into wedges.
  6. Make the peach filling: In a large bowl, toss the peach wedges with 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice.
  7. Prepare the crust: On a lightly floured surface, roll out two 12-inch diameter pie crusts (homemade or store-bought).
  8. Assemble the pie: Coat a 9 1/2-to 10-inch cast-iron skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Line the skillet with one pie crust, ensuring the dough comes 3/4 of the way up the sides.
  9. Fill the pie: Spoon the peach mixture into the pie crust.
  10. Top the pie: Place the second crust over the peaches. Cut several slits in the center of the top crust to vent steam. Tuck any excess dough under the bottom crust and crimp the edges to seal.
  11. Egg wash and sugar: Brush the top crust with 1 beaten large egg and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar.
  12. Grill the pie: Place the skillet on the rack over the empty (indirect heat) side of the grill. Cover the grill and grill for 1 hour and 30 minutes, rotating the skillet once halfway through, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  13. Cool and serve: Remove the pie from the grill and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
