1cuppeach jam or preserves(add cornstarch to thicken)
6fresh peaches(leave peelings on)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Roll out refrigerated pie crust to make it large enough to fit in the bottom of a pie plate and leave a 2 inch overlap on top.
Place pie crust in bottom of pie plate.
For a thicker filling, mix peach jam with 1 to 2 tablespoons of cornstarch until it it is your desired consistency. Spread jam on pie crust.
Thinly slice 6 fresh peaches in half moon shape.
Arrange slices in a circular pattern on top of jam. Start on the outside and press into jam as you go. Finish with another circular pattern in the middle.
Fold 2 inch overlap over peaches, leaving a large area open in the middle.
Brush pie crust with melted butter. Dust with sugar if desired.
Bake at 450 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.
Cool pie completely before serving so it has time to set.
Notes
Make sure the type of jam used is very thick. If it isn't thick the pie will be runny. To prevent this, stir in a tablespoon or two of cornstarch to the jam before spreading on the pie crust.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
Since this pie has a cobbler consistency, it's easier to serve it with a spoon instead of cutting a slice.
