Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    My first pie from this book. Turned out delicious! I chopped the peaches without bothering to skin them since the instructions didn’t mention it. I think that was just fine! My only regret is that after weighing I was just a little short on peaches. Excited to try more pie recipes now!

    Delish. I added an extra cup of peaches (Colorado peaches) and omitted nutmeg

    Made this with the crust from Midwest Made. Took a few extra minutes in the oven to bubble. Smells amazing!

    As a first time peach pie maker, this recipe was wonderful. My peaches weren't particularly ripe so I used 1/2 cup of sugar and threw in some berries that were lingering at the back of the fridge.

    This was probably the first peach pie I've made, and it turned out very nicely. Since I baked it in the morning, the filling was well set by the time I served it after dinner. The only thing I would do differently is roll out the crust thinner. My pie plate is on the smaller side, so I find that the standard pie pastry recipe is really more than I need for one pie. Next time, I'll try to remember to thin the crust a bit, and bake the extra dough scraps sprinkled with cinnamon-sugar, rather than use up all the dough for the pie.

    Made with the all butter dough from the same book, at least two people separately said this was one of the best peach pies they've ever had. It's the first peach pie I've ever made, thus the magic of Kate McDermott. Used frozen peaches and added an extra spoon of tapioca starch and the lower amount of sugar.
