Step by Step Instructions
- Prepare green chiles by roasting on a broiler, removing the skin and seeds, and chopping the pepper flesh. Three peppers should equal 1 cup of chopped peppers.
- To make the crust: Place flour and sugar in a food processor; pulse until blended. Add butter; pulse until butter is the size of peas. Add 1/2 cup cheese, pulse 1-2 times. Transfer mixture to a large bowl. Mix together egg yolk and 6 Tbsp ice water; gradually add to flour mixture. Toss with a fork until dough holds together when pressed, adding more water if needed. Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk. Wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wrap chopped green chiles in 3 layers of paper towels and squeeze gently to remove excess moisture. In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Add peaches and chiles; toss to coat.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll one dough portion into a 1/8-inch thick circle; transfer to a 9-in pie plate. Trim crust even with rim. Sprinkle bottom with shredded cheese. Add filling; dot with butter. Roll out remaining dough; make a lattice crust. Place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edge.
- Bake on lower rack for 10 minutes. Reduce oven setting to 350 degrees. Bake 35-40 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.
