Peach Pie with Brown Sugar and Coconut Streusel Topping
I had meant to use my homemade canned peach pie filling I made a few months back. Those beautiful bright peach-colored jars were staring at me and daring me to use it in a new recipe. I had been trying to lose the rest of the baby weight, and staying away from sweets was my goal. Well, the goal failed when I made this peach pie topped with brown sugar and a coconut streusel topping from my trusty Cooking Light cookbook
The original recipe called for a few things that I ended up changing. Fresh peaches, but I changed it with ingredients I had in the pantry. I added the brown sugar in the streusel instead of putting it in the pie filling and increased the amount of streusel.
This pie is a great peach pie variation. The sweet coconut oat topping is a wonderful taste and brightens up a plain pie filling and crust.
Cost to make this recipe.
I calculated this pie recipe to be around $7.21 or $0.90 per serving slice. The peach filling makes up the bulk of the cost on this dessert. As homesteaders if you can your filling then the price will go down, especially if you grow the peaches too.
