Equipment

  • stainless steel pan
  • Stand mixer
  • Baking Sheet
  • Pie dish

Ingredients
  

Brown Butter Pie Crust

  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter
  • 2.67 cups all-purpose flour plus 1 tablespoon
  • 0.75 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 0.5 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider or white vinegar
  • 1 whole egg whisked

Strawberry and Peach Filling

  • 3 cups fresh sliced peaches
  • 3 cups fresh strawberries hulled and quartered
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.25 cup cornstarch plus 1 tablespoon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 0.25 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2-3 tablespoons Turbinado sugar optional

Instructions
 

Make the Pie Dough

  • Line a shallow bowl with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a stainless steel pan, cook the butter over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, or until there are medium brown butter solids and the butter smells nutty.
  • Scrape the butter into the bowl and chill in the freezer until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Once completely frozen, remove the parchment paper and cut the butter into cubes. Place it back in the freezer until ready to use.
  • In a stand mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Then add the cubed browned butter. Mix the butter on low speed until small, pea-sized pieces remain.
  • Measure out the water and vinegar into a cup, then add ice. Stir to melt some of the ice and chill the water.
  • With the mixer running on low, drizzle the ice water into the bowl by the tablespoon.
  • When the dough starts to clump around the paddle, stop mixing. It should feel moist and soft, but not sticky.
  • Divide the dough into two rounds. Wrap each one in plastic wrap and roll them into flat round discs. Chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Assemble the Pie

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F/218 C.
  • Take one disc of dough from the fridge and place it on a lightly floured surface.
  • Roll it into a circle about ⅛ inch thick and 12 inches in diameter, then transfer to a 9-inch metal pie pan.
  • Roll the second disc in the same way and cut out 1 inch strips.
  • In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, peaches, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, cornstarch, and salt.
  • Pour the filling into the pie dish, leaving all of the excess liquid in the bowl.
  • To make the lattice, arrange the vertical strips on the top of the filling, following the lattice pattern.
  • Brush the top crust of the pie with the egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  • Place the pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes, then decrease the heat to 350 F/180 C and continue baking for another 40-50 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 4 hours before serving.

Notes

Cover leftovers tightly in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The pie dough can be prepped and stored in the fridge for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
