Summer Fruit Cream Pie

Farm-stand berries are folded into a cinnamon-laced filling that's obscured not with waves of whipped cream but with glistening glazed peaches.

Ingredients

Serves 12

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 3/4 cups whole milk
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 ounces (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 1/2 ounces (1/2 cup) blueberries
  • 2 1/2 ounces (1/2 cup) raspberries
  • 2 1/2 ounces (1/2 cup) blackberries
  • Graham Cracker Crust
  • 1 cup Peaches in Syrup

Directions

  1. Whisk sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan; whisk in milk. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until bubbling and thick, about 7 minutes total (about 2 minutes after it comes to a boil).
  2. Whisk yolks in a medium bowl until combined. Pour in milk mixture in a slow, steady stream, whisking until completely incorporated. Return mixture to the saucepan, and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it returns to a boil, 1 to 2 minutes.
  3. Immediately remove from heat, and stir in cinnamon. Add butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking until butter melts before adding another piece. Let custard cool in saucepan on a wire rack, whisking occasionally, for about 10 minutes. Gently fold in berries until evenly distributed.
  4. Pour custard into graham cracker crust. Press plastic wrap directly on surface of custard. Refrigerate until custard filling is chilled and firm, at least 4 hours (or overnight).
  5. Spoon peaches with syrup onto center of pie, and serve immediately.
