Ingredients
- Fillo dough (1 package)
- Fresh peaches (4-5, peeled and sliced)
- Butter (4 tablespoons, melted)
- Sugar (1/4 cup, or to taste)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a pie pan and scrunch the fillo dough into the pan, creating a textured, crinkled base.
- Step 2: Layer the sliced peaches evenly over the fillo dough, then dot generously with melted butter and sprinkle sugar on top.
- Step 3: Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the fillo is golden brown and the peaches are bubbly.
- Step 4: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving to allow the flavors to set.
Tips & Variations
- For extra flavor, sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg over the peaches before baking.
- Try using frozen peaches if fresh are out of season; just thaw and drain excess juice.
- Brush each layer of fillo with melted butter for an even crispier texture.
- Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream when serving for a luscious finish.
Storage
Store leftover pie covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a low oven to refresh the crispiness of the fillo. This pie is best enjoyed fresh but can be served cold as well.

FAQs
Can I use canned peaches instead of fresh?
Yes, canned peaches can be used if drained well to avoid excess moisture, which can make the fillo soggy.
How do I keep the fillo dough from drying out before baking?
Keep the fillo dough covered with a damp kitchen towel while working to prevent it from drying and becoming brittle.

Ingredients
Pie Ingredients
- 6 sheets of fillo dough, thawed
- 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Fillo Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Carefully scrunch or scrunch up the fillo dough sheets and place them loosely into a pie pan, creating crinkled layers that will form the crust.
- Add the Filling: Evenly spread the sliced peaches over the fillo dough in the pan. Dot the peaches with small bits of the melted butter, then sprinkle the granulated sugar uniformly over the top to enhance sweetness.
- Bake the Pie: Place the pie pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until the fillo dough is golden brown and crisp, and the peaches are tender and bubbling slightly.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing. This helps the juices to settle and the flavors to meld for a perfect serving.
Notes
- Be gentle when handling fillo dough as it tears easily; keep unused sheets covered with a damp cloth.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg over the peaches before baking.
- This pie is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
- If fresh peaches are not available, use thawed frozen peaches but drain excess liquid to prevent sogginess.
