There are so many ways to enjoy fresh peaches. The Peach Praline Pie, with its praline topping, is one of the best. Good peaches contain lots of juice, so a deep-dish pie pan helps for this recipe. If you don’t have one, just make sure the pastry edges are crimped well and that they have a standing rim.
