A delightful twist on the classic peaches and cream pie, this recipe combines a buttery crust, juicy peaches, and a creamy topping for a dessert that's both comforting and elegant.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated for even baking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the cold butter and mix until crumbly.
Using cold butter helps create a flaky crust.
Add the egg and milk to the mixture and stir until a dough forms. Press the dough into a buttered pie plate.
Chill the dough for 10 minutes if it's too soft to handle.
Slice the peaches and arrange them evenly over the crust.
Arrange the peaches in a circular pattern for a beautiful presentation.
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Spread this mixture over the peaches.
Ensure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing.
Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the top of the pie.
Use a fine sieve for an even sprinkle of cinnamon.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until the top is golden and set.
Check the pie halfway through to ensure even baking.
Allow the pie to cool before serving. Enjoy your Peach Delight Cream Pie!
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
