Tips for the Best Puff Pastry Turnovers

Keep Puff Pastry Cold

Cold pastry creates the flakiest layers.

Don’t Overfill

Too much filling can leak during baking.

Use Fresh Ripe Apricots

Fresh apricots create the best sweet flavor and texture.

Let Cool Slightly Before Glazing

Warm pastries help the honey glaze settle beautifully without melting completely off.

Ingredients for Brown Butter Peach Pie

Peach Filling

  • 5 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • 1½ tablespoons flour

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Brown Butter Crumble Topping

  • ½ cup dark brown sugar

  • ½ cup granulated sugar

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup salted brown butter

Pie Crust

  • 1 store-bought pie crust or homemade pie crust

Optional Homemade Caramel Sauce

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 6 tablespoons salted butter, room temperature

  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream, room temperature

How to Make Brown Butter Peach Pie

Step 1: Prepare the Peach Filling

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Peel and slice the fresh peaches, then add them to a large mixing bowl. Toss the peaches with granulated sugar, flour, and cinnamon until evenly coated. Set aside while preparing the crumble topping.

Step 2: Brown the Butter

In a small heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt a stick of salted butter over medium heat, stirring frequently. Continue cooking until the butter turns golden brown and develops a warm nutty aroma.

Remove from heat and allow the browned butter to cool slightly.

The brown butter is what gives this peach crumble pie its rich bakery-style flavor and irresistible depth.

Step 3: Make the Crumble Topping

In a medium bowl, whisk together:

  • dark brown sugar

  • granulated sugar

  • flour

Pour in the slightly cooled brown butter and stir until buttery crumbs form.

This crumble topping bakes into the most delicious golden crisp layer over the peaches.

Step 4: Assemble the Pie

Fit the pie crust into your pie plate.

Pour the peach filling into the crust, then generously sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the peaches.

Cover the pie loosely with foil and place in the oven.

Bake for 15 minutes covered.

Remove the foil and continue baking for 30–45 additional minutes or until:

  • the crumble topping is golden brown

  • the peaches are soft and bubbling

  • the pie smells warm and caramelized

Tip: Place a cookie sheet underneath the pie pan to catch any bubbling juices.

Step 5: Make the Homemade Caramel Drizzle

While the pie bakes, prepare the optional caramel sauce.

Add granulated sugar to a stainless-steel saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously with a silicone spatula until clumps begin to form and eventually melt into a smooth amber-colored caramel.

This process usually takes about 8–10 minutes.

Carefully whisk in the butter chunks until fully combined.

Slowly pour in the heavy whipping cream while whisking continuously. Once incorporated, allow the caramel to boil for 1 minute.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before transferring to a glass jar.

As the caramel cools, it will thicken into the perfect consistency for drizzling over warm peach pie. For another creamy and indulgent dessert idea, don’t miss our Discover the Ultimate Banana Cream Pie Recipe with an Irresistible Biscoff Cookie Crust.

Tips for the Best Peach Crumble Pie

Use Fresh Ripe Peaches

Don’t Skip the Brown Butter

Let the Pie Cool Slightly

Allowing the pie to rest helps the filling set properly before slicing.

  • vanilla ice cream
