Ingredients: 3
c
peaches,
sliced (4 or 5)
2
tb
sugar 1
tb
lemon juice 1/2
c
water 2
tb
telatin 1
c
orange juice 1
tb
orange liqueur 1
9"
graham cracker crust
(see recipe)
Directions:
Peel the peaches and cut into slices about 1/4 inch thick. Work over a
bowl to catch any dripping juices. Place the slices in a bowl and
sprinkle over them the sugar and lemon juice, then mix with your hands
to coat all the peach slices with the sugar. Cover and put aside.
Put the water in a small bowl and sprinkle on the gelatin; put aside
to soften. Meanwhile, pour the orange juice and liqueur into a small pot
and bring to a boil. Take the pot off the heat and stir in the
softened gelatin. Remove 1/2 cup of the syrup and reserve. Cool the
remaining syrup.
Taste the peach juices and if not sweet enough, add a little extra
sugar. Pour the cooled syrup over the peaches and mix well; again, your
hands make the best implement. Refrigerate the peaches until the syrup
beings to jell.
Spoon the peaches and their jelly into the pie shell and pat the
surface to smooth it. Refrigerate until quite firm. Pour on the reserved
syrup and return to the refrigerator until it sets into a clear glaze on
top.
