Fourteen years ago, I entered this beautiful lattice-top pie in the Park County Fair in Livingston. It won a first-place blue ribbon plus a purple ribbon for "Best All Around"! My large family—and many friends agree with the judges that it's very delicious.

1/8 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch

This is the first peach pie I have ever made and it turned out delicious. I used my own homemade pie crust recipe. Everyone said this pie came out excellent. I did change the almond extract amount to "1/2 teaspoon" and also added "1/4 teaspoon cinnamon". Very easy to make and so extra delicious to eat!

I altered slightly. Used 2 bags frozen peaches about 5 cups. Omited lemon juice, orange peel and almond extract as I did not have them. It still turned out wonderful. Will try the other ingredients sometime.

This is by far the best peach pie recipe I have ever made. Can't wait for Georgia peaches to be in season. I think it's the almond extract that sets it apart from other pies.
