How to Make Old Fashioned Fresh Peach Pie

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roll out your favorite pie crust recipe and line a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
In a medium bowl, whisk together ¾ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
Gently fold in 6 cups peeled and sliced Michigan Red Haven peaches (about 6 medium peaches).
Pour the peach mixture into the prepared pie crust.
Dot the top of the filling with 4 tablespoons (½ stick) of cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces.
Place the top crust over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal, and cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
