This mini peach pie is the perfect summer treat to use up those peaches you have from your summer harvest. Even if you don't have a garden, take advantage of all the in-season peaches at your local grocery store!
Mini Peach Pie:
This mini peach pie recipe is super easy to make. All you need to do is place your refrigerated pie crust into a small pie plate. Then you slice your peaches and put them into the pie plate on top of the crust. The you mix together the nutmeg and sugar over the peaches. Finally you whisk together the eggs and cream and pour that on top of the peaches. Then all you need to do is sprinkle on the crumb topping and bake in the oven. It's super easy, and I love that you don't need to cook the peaches on the stove top beforehand.
Crumb Topping for Peach Pie:
Personally, I prefer a crumb topping over a pie with a pie crust top any day of the week. If we differ in this opinion, that is completely okay. We can agree to disagree. To make the crumb topping for this pie you will need:
- 1/4 cup Flour
- 2 tbsp Brown Sugar
- 1/4 cup Rolled Oats
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 1/8 tsp Cinnamon
Simply combine all ingredients together until they form a crumbly mixture, and then sprinkle on top of your peach pie before it goes into the oven.
Kitchen Tools for Mini Peach Pie:
This recipe is so simple there really aren't major tools you need to make this pie. I did use a 5 inch mini pie plate, which is really the only key tool you need for this recipe. I've been using this collection of 5-inch pie plates from The Pioneer Woman Collection at Walmart for the last several years and I have really loved them!
The Easiest Way to Make a Mini Peach Pie:
If you want to completely take the easy route on this recipe you could simply purchase the mini pie plates from Walmart, use a refrigerated pie crust, and a canned peach pie filling. All you would need to do is put the pie crust in your pie dish, spoon some pie filling into the crust, and then sprinkle with the crumb topping and you would have a very easy peach pie with even less effort.

You can definitely use a refrigerated pie crust for this recipe, it's the route I personally chose. If you want, you can make your own mini pie crust, and I have outlined the recipe and how to go about that in this mini pie crust recipe here.
