INSTRUCTIONS
Combine cornstarch and 1/4 cup apple juice; stir well and set aside.
Combine peaches and next 3 ingredients in a Dutch oven. Bring to a boil;
cover, reduce heat, and simmer 8 to 10 minutes or until peaches are tender.
Stir in cornstarch mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened and
bubbly. Remove from heat, and stir in almond extract. Let cool.
Combine 1/2 cup flour, salt, and 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg; cut in margarine with
a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle cold water,
1 tablespoon at a time, over surface; stir with a fork just until dry
ingredients are moistened. Shape into a ball.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon flour over work surface. Roll dough to an 8-inch
square on floured surface; cut into 1/2-inch strips.
Spoon peach mixture into an 8-inch square baking dish coated with cooking
spray. Arrange pastry strips lattice-style over peach mixture. Seal pastry
to edge of dish. Bake at 425 degrees F. for 20 minutes or until pastry is
golden and filling is bubbly. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig, if desired.
