This Fresh Peach Pie recipe allows those fresh peaches to be the star! The pie crust is filled with a no-bake homemade peach pie filling of fresh sliced peaches and a simple glaze.
Add peeled and sliced peaches to a bowl and sprinkle with sugar and lemon juice. Stir well to combine, then allow to rest for 30 minutes to an hour, stirring once or twice.
Drain peach juice into a measuring cup to get 1 cup of juice. Pour juice into a saucepan, then whisk in cornstarch. Cook on medium heat for a few minutes, stirring, until thickened.
