I spotted a peach pie recipe over on Christina’s blog, and I knew it was a MUST make. I changed up a few things, but I am so glad I tried her recipe. It was obvious that peaches and custard filling would be super tasty!

I start with a store bought crust for my Custard Peach Pie. Since I had a few frozen crusts taking up freezer space, it worked best for me. If you make this pie, consider making my 4 Ingredient Pie Crust.

Fresh peaches are not available yet here in Ohio. I had purchased a bunch of canned peaches, and I used them. You can make this Peach Pie with fresh, frozen, or canned peaches, whichever you choose.

For the Peach Pie Filling, we make a creamy custard. Buy two of the small peach flavored yogurt containers. If you can not locate flavored, you can also use vanilla or plain. I like the peach best because it gives a bit more flavor.

Recipe for Peach Pie with Custard

First, you will need to prebake your pie crust for about 5-10 minutes. I poke a few holes with a fork to allow the steam to release. This process (docking) keeps it from bubbling and cook more evenly.

Next, in a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks.

Then, add the yogurt, sugar, flour, and vanilla. Whisk the mixture until smooth.

Now, drain and pat dry the peach slices and place them into the bottom of the prepared pie crust. If you plan to use fresh peaches, you will need to peel and slice about six medium peaches.

Pour the custard mix over the pie peaches.

Then, bake in a preheated 425-degree oven for about 20 minutes. Remove the pie from the oven and add a pie shield. If you do not have one on hand, use foil to cover around the crust.

Now, bake for another 15 minutes. Then, in a small bowl, add the brown sugar, flour, and butter cut into small pieces. Use two forks or a pastry cutter to cut in the butter pieces.

Add the streusel topping and continue to bake for an additional 20 minutes or so. You will want to watch for the custard to be just slightly jiggly before removing from the oven.

This homemade pie is tasty warm, or cold. Go ahead and serve with a scoop of ice cream or whipped topping.

Can I Freeze Custard Peach Pie?
For sure, you can! The second time I made it, I froze it. I removed from the freezer and allowed to defrost before serving, which was a couple of hours.

  1. I’m interested in making the peach cream pie ,can you tell me if the 6oz yougart is all you need or x2? Thank you regards from Malta

  2. I was so excited about this pie and I just couldn’t get the custard to set 😭 I used all of the full cook times and an extra 5-10 min at the end to try to get it to set up a bit. After chilling in the fridge for six hours it still isn’t set. Any ideas on what went wrong? I want to try again because clearly many have had success! 😊

  3. 5 stars
    I’ve made this with both peaches and also with strawberries. It’s so good. My family has forbidden to buy store bought pies from here on out.

    1. Oh, MY Crystal! A Strawberry version sounds wonderful. I think I will make one this weekend. I am glad your family is enjoying the pie recipe.
