Peach Slab Pie Recipe
A delicious Peach Slab Pie Recipe for using up those ripe peaches and an easier way for serving pie.
You, like many a human on this earth, may have heard of the phrase ‘Georgia peach.’ We love the state of Georgia. Many of our friends and family members are from Georgia. It’s a lovely state for sure, full of lovely, lovely people. But, as a Carolina Girl, I would like to reclaim the peach for the equally lovely state of South Carolina. Because nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina in the morning … eating peaches. Did you know that the peach is the state fruit of South Carolina? And that South Carolina produces more peaches than Georgia, second in the U.S. only to California? And did you know that the South Carolina Peach Council is campaigning to dub SC ‘the tastier peach state’? Yep. Thems are the facts, Jack.
No hard feelings Georgia. I love ya like you’re my own. But how about a friendly inter-state peach-off? What say you? Who’s up for the tasty challenge? Let’s do it!
All this to say, the peach is truly a beautiful, sweet, downright scrumptious fruit, most worthy of a few states vying to claim it as their very own. So wherever you happen to be, hunt down some ripe peaches while they are in season. Fresh ripe peaches are remarkable when in season. If you are able to get your hands on some, whip up this easy Peach Slab Pie. It’s the perfect place for fresh peaches and oh so easy to make.
This Peach Slab Pie is basic pie prep only in baking sheet size which makes it super easy for serving a crowd and equally as tasty as the standard round version. The peach pie filling is straight forward pie fixing. Quick prep, y’all. As far as the crust, this slab pie recipe requires the equivalent dough of two pies, with a top and bottom crust. Use homemade pie dough or purchase pre-made dough. Whatever works for you!
Peach Slab Pie Recipe
This delicious homemade Peach Slab Pie Recipe, made with fresh peaches, is perfect for serving a group and is easy make too! *Amount of dough is comparable to 4 individual single pie crusts. I recommend Ina Garten’s pie dough recipe, doubled for this slab pie. Store-bought pre-prepared dough may be used. Roll out and shape to appropriate size. **If desired, strips may be cut and interwoven to create a lattice top, or cut out decorative shapes in top crust before topping pie.

I’m tickled that you’re here! Like you, I wear many hats, and live to tell about it. This space is a place for sharing food, home, garden, travel and lifestyle tidbits, with some fun always thrown in for good measure.
This pie is such a great treat! I like peaches 🙂
Oh yeah, this looks scrumptious. And thanks, Amy, for setting the record straight about SC being The Peach State, because it IS! 🙂
Amy,
Happy 4th weekend. Just want you to know how much I enjoy you blog site. I’ve been coming here since 2011. Please keep doing what you do so well.

Thank you so much, Amy!
Do you peel peaches.
No just pit them and slice them
About how many peaches is six cups..thanks
6 medium peaches sliced gave me almost 7 cups.☺
I was wondering if you peel the peaches as well.
Yes, peel the peaches.
Do you think this would work with canned peaches/drained?
I’m wondering the same thing
I’m also wondering this. If you try it, I’d like to know how it turns out. ????
I’m not sure what the results would be as canned peaches are already poached/cooked. I imagine the peaches would be more mushy.
Sounds so delicious! Can’t wait to try it. Thanks for posting…
Palisade Peaches from Colorado are pretty dang good too! This looks like a great recipe.
Colorado peaches are far superior to Georgia peaches, just try some if you can find them….season is short…end of July. Becoming more popular up here in Minnesota as “the word gets out”.
Here in the Midwest, Colorado peaches are the bomb! They have a slightly tangy taste & they are cling free. Home bakers hover them when they arrive in the grocery stores & we tell each other about their arrival. Some of my best childhood memories include helping my mother can Colorado peaches so we could taste them all year long. I still make peach pie & this slab peach pie recipe looks terrific! Thank you.
Is there a way to make this in a 13×9 cake pan?
Yes, you will just need to roll down the edges of pie crust to make fit to your liking.
That’s what the recipe says to use!
Perfect timing for this pie as it is peach season in Ontario! I will have to make this soon, as one little pie isn’t enough for my family! 🙂
Hi
Is this puff pastry or short crust pastry?thank you
Short crust pastry.
Can I use can peaches the 16oz? If so how many?
I was wondering about freezing this pie, how long can you freeze it for after making it?
I would let it cool to room temperature and then wrap tightly before freezing.
I made this for my Herb Club Harvest Dinner (by adding one tablespoon of finely minced basil), and it was the first dessert to be completely devoured. In fact, I barely got to taste it & now have to make another for hubby & me! Delicious – and so easy!
Oh, I can’t wait to try it with basil, Donna. What a great addition.
Hello Amy. New to site. Here in Texas this is a Peach cobbler. Can’t wait until summer for our peach season to make this unless I can make it with frozen peaches. What do you think? Looks easy and yummy. Thanks.
Thawed frozen peaches should work well.
Oooh! I am so ready to try this! I will make enough short dough, to make 2, one to freeze (so we can have it ready made) and one to eat when it has cooled enough. 😀 Thank you Amy, for the recipe. I was wondering why pie always had to be in an 8″ round. 😀 Thanks for changing it up. 😀
What kind of Peach works best for recipes? There are many different kinds of Peaches. Does it matter which kind I use?
Does the bottom crust not get too wet from the peach juice mixed with sugar, etc?

I am a self-proclaimed peach pie connoisseur. It’s been my favorite since childhood. This is my new favorite peach pie recipe. I have made it 3 times now, once for my birthday instead of cake. It is absolutely the best. Ina Garten’s pie crust is perfect with it. I have only made in a 13×9 pan, but it was fantastic. Thanks so much!
I’m so happy to hear it, Kendra. Ina Garten rocks!
I was thinking about using a big sheet pan and making 1/2 apple and 1/2 peach. You have both recipes here. Do you think that would work, if I build up the crust as a divider in the middle?
That should work. Let me know how it turns out!
Made this for the 4th and it was an absolute success! So delicious, Amy. Thanks for another delicious recipe.
