Peach Pie Filling/ Topping

I know that there are a few late peaches still hanging around so I had to get this in before the season was completely over. This recipe comes to you from Sister 3 who lives in the heart of the land of peaches in Utahs Fruit Way. It is super easy to make and is a great filling for pie, cobbler or crisp (my favorite) or just put a little (or a lot) on ice cream and enjoy the sweet delicious goodness.

Peach Pie Filling/ Topping

Peel and cut up 3 cups fresh peaches (set aside)

In medium saucepan mix together 1 cup sugar and 5 TBS cornstarch. Add 1 cup water. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly. Boil until thick; turn off heat
Add 1/4 cup butter stirring until melted. Add 1/4 cup lemon juice and stir well- It will be thick.
Stir in prepared peaches just until coated.

Pour into baked pie crust or graham cracker crust, use for cobbler or crisp or serve warm over vanilla ice cream. Best if used within first day.
