peachy blue quaker pie

Updated on Aug 6, 2012

Well, this is a unique combination as I had some left over blueberries from making a blueberry pie and just bought some fresh peaches from the market and thought could they go together? Well, they most certainly do and what a delicious combination. The addition of ginger was something I knew from other peach pies so I added it in. The topping is a true original as I have been wanting to use up some cereal I had and I knew that if I added butter and some flour I could make a crust. It turned out delicious! I loved the combination & now I can't wait to try other Quaker oatmeal cereals too.

How To Make peachy blue quaker pie

  • Step 1
    Place you peaches in boiling hot water for about 15 seconds or a little longer then the peeling comes right off. Remove seed and then thinly slice the peaches. Wash your blueberries and place on a paper towel to dry. Then combine all dry ingredients for pie in a bowl and whisk together, then add the fruit and zest of lemon and toss to all is coated.
  • Step 2
    Add your mixed fruit and other ingredients into uncooked pie crust.
  • Step 3
    This is the oatmeal I used.
  • Step 4
    Combine all dry ingredients for topping and cut in the butter with a pastry cutter till crumbly. (I do not have a pastry cutter so I just use a large fork.) Crumble the topping over the fruit mixture and bake for 45 to 50 minutes at 350 degrees. I place my pie on a cookie sheet covered with tin foil for easy clean up. This pie did bubble over juices, so it worked well.
  • Step 5
    Remove pie from oven and let cool completely...if possible. We couldn't wait and cut into after 1/2 hour. LOL
  • Step 6
    Cutting into it early causes juices to run more. If you refrigerate the pie it sets up better. Make sure you serve with some vanilla ice cream too.
  • Step 7
    Here is a slice cut after the pie cooled down.
