Directions

["First, make the crust: place the butter and fresh lard onto a plate, dice it into small pieces, then place it in the freezer for 10 minutes.", "Meanwhile, whisk together all remaining pie crust ingredients (except the water). Once 10 minutes has elapsed, add the slightly frozen butter and lard to the flour mixture and cut it in until it is the size of grains of rice. Use a pastry cutter or two butter knives to do this. Next, add 2 tablespoons of the water and press it into the dough with a spatula, turning and smashing it into the dough. Add extra water if it's not coming together or if it appears too crumbly. Dump the mixture on a piece of plastic wrap, shape it into a disc, then store it in the fridge for 20 minutes to let it rest.", "While the dough is resting, preheat the oven to 375\u00b0F and peel, pit and dice the peach. In a small bowl, stir together the peach with the apple pie spice, sugar and cornstarch. Set aside.", "After the dough has rested, flour a clean counter and roll it out to 1/4\" thickness.""
