The Verdict: This is the second pie crust sort of crumble thing from Simply in Season that I made where the crust didn’t do much, it’s like it needed liquid or something to hold it together, even with the butter in it. The middle part was good, though, and I was able to use some of the blueberries that I had frozen a couple of weeks ago.

I think this sounds delicious and a great way to use peaches and blueberries – maybe both in the same pie! It seems to have alot of sugars (27g) in the nutricion info.. I think I’ll replace it with Truvia maybe. I’m definately making this but with the Pate Brise crust instead. Thanks for the inspiration as always 🙂
Let me know how it turns out if you do substitute Truvia! I have used Stevia for baking in the past and it seems to work OK.
I thought this would be the perfect way to use up some peaches before I leave town tonight. You’re so right about the crust, but the filling was good! A word of advice for other peach users – halving the peaches meant for a weird kind of lumpy filling – as though it had a bad case of the mumps. I would suggest slicing the peaches instead.
So interesting about the crust–I’m glad to have the warning!
It’s a beautiful dessert, judging from the photo. I’d be happy to eat it, crust and all!
Thanks for linking to Food on Fridays!
This looks delicious! I’m going to make it right now 🙂
I will be substituting the crust for graham cracker crust only because I have some that need to be used up 🙂 I’ll be using only a small amount of sugar, if any, when I do the crust since graham crackers are sweet enough to begin with 🙂 Next time, though, I’ll try it with the crust! Any suggestions for what to add to it to make it not so dry? Maybe a splash of whey?
yes, or more butter 🙂
Awesome!! 🙂 Okay! I made this recipe with graham cracker crust. The parts of the crust that were thinner, burned a little,but the crust that is covered looks great! i’m going to take a trip to my local health food store and grab some pastry flour for next time! thanks for this awesome recipe! im always looking for new ways to use the 25+lbs of various berries that are frozen in my freezer from when i went picking all summer! 🙂
