PEACH-BERRY PIE

Well, it started with the peaches above. 

I bought an entire case of Georgia peaches last week with the intent of learning how to make peach preserves!

This is what I have left!  Obviously, not enough for preserves but definitely enough for a pie or cobbler!! 

I wanted to try a new recipe using my peaches, so I went on the website allrecipes.com and found one that had great reviews.  It was really so simple and quick to throw together.  It is a perfect recipe to impress your guests.  I have a confession to make, I have never made a pie crust.  Eeeek!!  Another confession....I used pre-made crusts for this recipe.   I do want to get around to making a homemade pie crust.  I am told it is pretty easy!  I'll leave that for another day and another blog.

Today, it was Peach-Berry Pie and it did not disappoint.  My son-in-law doesn't even like peaches and when he saw it and smelled it, he scooped up a big serving with ice cream and licked the bowl clean...haha!  I think you will like it too!
