  7. Comments: The Pennsylvania Dutch have been cooking peaches and tomatoes together since the 1850s, enjoying the many varieties of available tomatoes, especially the yellow and orange ones. The amount of sugar you use depends on the type and sweetness of the peaches, so you will want to adjust the sugar according to taste. Some cooks put a cinnamon stick in the pie rather than using the grnd spice. The cinnamon stick flavors the pie without discoloring the peaches. The Pennsylvania Dutch also make a dumpling-type dough for the top crust, that rises during baking and absorbs some of the juice. But a short pastry crust works well too.
