Stone Fruit Mini-Pie

I may have a problem;  I cannot stop buying peaches. I could eat them three meals a day, but somehow I cannot eat them fast enough, which means I constantly have overripe peaches on hand and need something to do with them.

A few weeks ago, I had a few of these yummy fuzzy babies in my bowl, along with some plums (which I always buy and then never want to eat) so I threw together a mini-pie.

I had half a pie crust in my mini-pan, along with two diced peaches, a diced plum, two tablespoons of brown sugar, and a quarter teaspoon of nutmeg (my other obsession).

Yum. Especially a la mode, but that's another story.

Peaches and Cream Pie

So, my memory card deleted and I have no photos of this but man oh man did it taste good. I made it for my "True Blood Supper Club" with friends Lisa and Mandy and we ate 3/4 of it in one sitting!

I was inspired by this recipe from Smitten Kitchen. I followed it pretty closely except:
- I cut peaches into sixths instead of quarters and I still thought they were a little bit too big.
- I made my own fake creme fraiche by whisking together whipping cream and sour cream (equal parts)... and I think I used more of it in the pie than was recommended and I served it on top of the pie later.
- I used a store bought crust *hangs head in shame* and I didn't parbake it ahead of time b/c I'm impatient

Store-bought crust or not, this was freaking delicious. It wasn't too sweet and the integrity of the perfect summer peach was really upheld. I probably could have eaten more, but 3/4 of the pie seemed like enough for one night. :)
