Summer Cherry Peach Amaretto Crumb Pie

CHERRY PEACH PIE
Michael


Some pies are built for holidays. Some pies are built for county fairs. This one is built for summer.
Sweet cherries, Georgia peaches (if you can find them), a shot of Amaretto, and a buttery crumb topping come together to make a manly pie that disappears fast. The almond notes from the Amaretto make the cherries taste even more like cherries, while the peaches bring a little taste of my home state to a Maryland summer.
If you're looking for a pie that tastes like July and can impress your date, you've found it!
I grew up in Georgia, where peaches aren't just fruit, they're a way of life and fighting words when someone mentions South Carolina peaches. These days I call Maryland home, but every summer I still look for an excuse to work peaches into a pie.
This is the kind of pie you make after a long day outside. Maybe you've been cutting grass, riding trails, working on a project in the garage, or standing over a grill. The sun's going down, the drinks are cold, and somebody you care about is headed over for dinner.
Most people don't expect a guy to pull a homemade pie out of the oven. That's exactly why you should.
The crust is flaky, the filling is loaded with real fruit, and the Amaretto adds just enough almond flavor to make people wonder what makes it so good. The crumb topping brings everything together with a buttery crunch that practically demands a second slice.
It's not fancy. It's not complicated. It's just a damn good pie made from scratch.
And trust me, serving a warm slice of Cherry Peach Amaretto Crumb Pie after dinner leaves a stronger impression than reservations ever will.
