Instructions
- Filling:
- Put the peaches into a large mixing bowl. Add all of the remaining ingredients and mix until the peaches are saturated and coated with the honey. Cover and refrigerate until ready to bake.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Crust:
- Put all of the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until small dime-sized balls are formed. If you don't have a food processor, put the ingredients into a bowl and, using a knife, cut the shortening and butter into the flour. When all the ingredients are incorporated, turn out onto a lightly floured surface and quickly knead the dough into a disc. Do not work dough too much. Gently roll the dough out and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Trim the edges, or shape the edges as desired. Poke several holes in the bottom of the dough with a fork.
- Put the peaches into the pie pan, and bake for about 12 to 18 minutes, depending on the color of the edges of the pie crust. When the edges are a beautiful brown, take the pie out of oven and cool.
- Whipped topping:
- Put all of the ingredients into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer, until a silky whipped cream is formed; this should take about 3 minutes or so.
- When pie has cooled, use a spatula to spread the whipped topping over the surface of the pie. This pie is a picture perfect masterpiece that even Mom would be proud of.
