Vegan Summer Peach Pie


Crust:
2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup canola oil
5 tablespoons cold non dairy milk or water

Filling:
2-3 large peaches
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 TBS. flour
1 tsp vanilla 

Mix flour and salt, add oil. Add milk or water by tablespoon until dough is formed. Create two balls, wrap in plastic and flatten to a 6 inch disc. Refrigerate 15 mins.

In a small bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon and flour. Slice and pit peaches, place in bowl and mix in sugar mixture. Add vanilla. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350'F.

When the dough is ready, roll it out on a floured surface to create a 10 inch circle. Press into 9 inch pie baking dish and trim off any excess pieces. If the pie dish does not already have holes at the bottom, poke holes with a fork all over bottom. 

Pour peaches into baking dish and set aside. 


Roll out second ball on floured surface. This will create the pie top. You can choose to make it in a variety of ways. I prefer a lattice top. For detailed instructions on making a lattice top, check out: http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/how_to_make_a_lattice_top_for_a_pie_crust/

When the top is complete, brush it with maple syrup and bake about 30-35 minutes, until crust is golden brown.

Cool and enjoy.
