In a lucky moment, the peaches I purchased from our sub-par grocery store actually ripened up very nicely. I used them in this peach and creme fraiche pie. It was WON-DER-FUL. The bottom crust is pate sucree (basically more butter and sugar than a traditional pie crust) and the top is a streusal topping. Little dollops of creme fraiche under and on top of the peaches melt with the peach juices to make a creamy custard. I didn't have creme fraiche on hand, so substituted sour cream and the results were great. I will definitely be making this again before the good summer peaches are gone.

You guys seriously need to move closer to us. Warm Peach pie ala mode sounds so good right now. I'm jealous.
oh my gosh. this looks so good!!! we were just talking about wanting to make a peach pie! but it will have to wait for a couple weeks... our kitchen is packed up.
I'm definitely making this in the next few weeks...Yum.
Looks great! You might want to try the blackberry Cobbler #1 from the Pioneer Woman blog--it's great too!
This looks so good to me. I love pie.
