Peach Pie Tip

Did you know that you can freeze your pie filling??
Simply mix your filling as though you were making a fresh pie. Then wrap your pie pan in saran wrap and freeze your filling in the pan. When it is frozen solid, simply wrap it tightly in foil.
When you're ready to bake, just make a fresh crust, place your filling inside and bake at the normal temperature!

A wonderful winter treat!

Answer 2

Cut the peaches into slices after removing the pit. Add other fruit such as fresh strawberries , and banana slices, honey dew or cantaloupe and maybe seedless orange slices and you have a delicious fruit salad. Some fruit is only available at certain times of the year,so I would stick to those. Maybe you have canned fruit in the house, you could add only that to the peach slices also.
