Start with fresh, ripe peaches, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, butter, and a pinch of cinnamon. Don’t forget your pie crust, either store-bought or homemade!

Peel and slice your peaches. The fresher the peaches, the better the flavor. Aim for thin, even slices to ensure even cooking.

In a bowl, combine peaches with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon. This mix creates a sweet, thick filling for your pie.

Roll out your pie crust and place it in your pie dish. Make sure it’s evenly spread to avoid any thin spots that could break during baking.

Pour your peach filling into the prepared crust. Spread it out evenly and dot the top with small pieces of butter for extra richness.

Cover the pie with a second layer of crust or create a lattice top. Seal the edges by pressing them together with a fork or your fingers.

Bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 45-50 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't overcook.

Let your pie cool before slicing to allow the filling to set. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a perfect treat!
