Does it have to be heavy whipping cream? Whole or 2%?
Hi Joanne, I don’t think they make a 2% whipping cream. It should be heavy whipping cream.
I use tapioca flour in place of the flour (in your recipe), and also a bit of nutmeg, and sometimes, a drop or two of almond flavor. But I’ll try yours!

When making any kind of fruit pie, the ingredients are generally
always all mixed together before putting the filling (all ingredients)
in the pie crust. Cinnamon is what provides the flavor to many
fruit pies.
This sounds great as I love peaches. Understand that I am a novice baker, so am wondering where does the cinnamon go? I would ‘guess’ in with the salt, flour and sugar. I am planning on making this for a little gathering. I will let ya know how it goes.
Hi Tony, thanks for catching that — we have fixed the recipe. Yes, you would add the cinnamon with the other dry ingredients. Enjoy!
