Strudel Style Apple Peach Pie

It looks like a strudel but I used pie dough instead of puff pastry for this delicious dessert.

Ingredients:

4 apples, peeled, cored and sliced

1 cup canned sliced peaches, drained

3 tbsps sugar

1 tbsp cornstarch

1/2 tsp cinnamon 

1 lb pie dough

3 tbsps chopped pistachios

1 tbsp cream or milk

1 tbsp milk

1/4 tsp vanilla

1/4 cup icing sugar (more or less to your preferred consistency)

Combine the apples, peaches, sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon and set aside. Roll out the dough to roughly 10 X 13" and lay it on your baking sheet. Spoon the fruit filling down the center and sprinkle 2 tbsps chopped pistachios. Using scissors make cuts down each of the two long sides at about 1 - 1 1/2" intervals. Wet the ends then tuck the top and bottom flaps up over the filling and start crossing the strips across the middle pinching slightly to seal.

Brush with a little cream or milk (you could also use an egg wash here if you like) then sprinkle the remaining chopped pistachios on top. 

Bake at 400°F for 35-40 minutes.

Once cool enough to handle use two large spatulas to lift onto a serving platter.

Combine the milk, vanilla and icing sugar and drizzle back and forth over the top.

Delicious on it's own but...

even better with a scope of butterscotch ripple ice cream!
