This double-crusted beauty is all about ripe, juicy peaches — sliced thick, tossed with cornstarch, a bright hit of lemon juice, warm cinnamon, and a whisper of ginger so they bake down into a thick, glossy filling instead of a runny one. The crust comes together the classic way, with cold cubes of vegan butter worked into flour until it's flaky and tender, then rolled, filled, and crimped into a lattice-free top with a few simple slits for venting. A brush of plant-based milk gives the top crust that deep, golden-brown finish as it bakes low and slow after its initial high-heat blast. Let it rest a full two hours before slicing so the filling sets up into clean, jammy wedges rather than a puddle. It's a genuinely satisfying peach pie that fits neatly into an added sugar free kitchen, with all the flaky, fruity payoff of the original.

Instructions

1
Whisk together the flour, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tsp salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the cold cubed vegan butter and work it into the flour using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter still visible.
2
Drizzle in ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork after each addition, until the dough just holds together when pressed — it should not be sticky or wet. Divide the dough into two equal discs, wrap each in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
