Nora Ephron's Peach Pie - the Ohio version

1 1/4 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup butter

2 tablespoons sour cream

Turn in a food processor with a pastry blade until it forms a ball.

Pat out into a butter pie tin. Crimp if you like.

Bake 20 minutes at 425 degrees. (Don't worry about beans or pie beans, the crust is forgiving)

3 egg yolks slightly beaten

1 cup sugar

2 tablespoons flour

1/3 cup sour cream

Stir together until smooth.

Pour over 4 or more peeled, sliced peaches layered in the crust. (I used 8 smaller peaches today.)

Cover with foil.

Reduce oven to 350 degrees.

Bake 35 minutes. Remove the foil and bake 10 minutes more OR until the filling is set. (It can take 20 minutes. Just watch.

Enjoy!

Belated credit where due.

My son made this.
In Middle School English, you get to do the Dream Project. Some of the kids made board games, one wrote a song, etc. It's a kind of communication to the English teacher about what you learned from her.

Well, in true "apple doesn't fall far from the pastry chef" form, my guy baked a cake and decorated it with words. He also learned that decorating ain't quite as simple as it looks. He worked for quite a while and I have to say: I'm keen and not at all aghast at those who veer toward the gnarled folk filled with ample, vital glee and definitely not fickle!

Belated joy from me.
