Cut shortening into flour and salt. Mix egg, vinegar and water and add to flour mixture. Makes 3 crusts.
Combine all ingredients in the order given and mix well. Pour into greased 10" pie pan and bake 45 minutes at 350º. Do not overbake even though center seems soft. The pie forms its own delicate crust and the center is solid enough to cut when cool.

Gently drop the peaches in the boiling water for approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, remove the peaches and place them in iced water for a minute. The skins should slip off easily. If not, place back into the boiling water for another 30 seconds.
Slice the peaches and put them in a bowl. Sprinkle Fresh Fruit and sugar, and stir into peaches. Stir remaining ingredients and mix well.(Filling for 4 pies.)
Line 4 pie pans with heavy foil or freezer paper, placing a piece of plastic wrap over foil. Put 4 to 5 cups filling each pan. Loosly fold wrapping around pie and freeze until firm. When filling is frozen solid, remove from pans and wrap tightly. Return to freezer until ready to use.
On pie baking day, for each pie, simply place frozen pie filling in a pie shell, add 1/2 a stick of butter and sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg. Top pie with additional pastry crust, seal well, and bake for 50 to 60 minutes in a preheated 375° oven.
