Peach Egg Custard Pie image

In 2008 I entered this recipe in the Coloma, Michigan Glad/Peach Festival Bake Fest Contest. This heirloom recipe was a favorite of my mother's and came from the South Bend Tribune, 1959. The custard is a very firm set and this pie does not run when sliced. I received a First Place in the pie category for this classic recipe. Canned peaches may also be used instead of fresh peaches. Drain canned peaches well. This recipe works well with fresh blueberries also.
