Instructions
Cook pie crust until golden brown and allow to cool.
In a sauce pan over medium high heat, combine the sugar, cornstarch, salt and water. Stir constantly until the sugar is dissolved and the liquid begins to thicken. About 3 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the jello and lemon juice until the jello is dissolved.
Allow the glaze to cool for at least 10 minutes before mixing in the peaches. Stir in the peaches until they are all incorporated in the glaze.
Pour into the prepared pie crust and place in the refrigerator for at least four hours or overnight, until it is set.
Notes
You will know when the cornstarch is thick enough because it will plop from the spoon. Be sure that it is fully thickened before removing from the heat.
This pie is best made with fresh peaches.
To make this pie ahead, make the glaze and store in the refrigerator for up to a week before you are going to use it. Give the glaze a stir and add in the fresh peaches before pouring them into the prepared pie crust.
