Peaches are one of my all-time favourite fruits, so when I heard that McDonald's was offering Peach Pies for a limited time, I was very excited! As someone who loves trying new seasonal menu items, I couldn't wait to get my hands on one of these pies and see how it compares to their classic apple pies.

Impressions
Gooey & Moist:
Right off the bat, the texture of the Peach Pie stood out to me. It was much gooier and more moist than the usual apple pies McDonald's offers. The filling had a soft, almost jam-like consistency that added a rich, luscious feel to each bite.

Fragrant Peach Flavor:
The peach filling wasn’t overwhelmingly sweet, which I appreciated. Instead, it had a beautiful, fragrant peach flavour that came through without being cloying. The peaches didn't seem fully ripe, but surprisingly, the pie still delivered a delicious flavour. Despite the slightly under-ripe fruit, it was still enjoyable. I appreciated the pie's mild sweetness, which was balanced without the sugary overload you might expect.

Smaller Peach Bits:
While the peach filling was flavorful, I did notice that the peach pieces were much smaller than the chunky apple pieces typically found in McDonald's Apple Pies. I would've loved a bit more texture from larger chunks of peach, but the small pieces still packed plenty of fruity goodness.
Additional Thoughts:
Golden, Crispy Crust
As with McDonald's other pies, the crust was golden brown and perfectly crispy, offering a satisfying contrast to the gooey, tender filling inside. The outer shell had just the right amount of crunch without being overly greasy, making it easy to enjoy. However, due to the gooeyness of the filling, the pie struggled to maintain its shape, but the crispy outer shell still held up well, making each bite enjoyable despite the soft interior.
Verdict
Overall, I really enjoyed McDonald's Peach Pie. While I was expecting more substantial peach chunks, the fragrant filling and gooey texture made up for it. If you're a fan of peach-flavoured treats or just love trying new seasonal items, I highly recommend giving this a try before it’s gone. It's a perfect blend of sweetness and fruitiness, wrapped up in McDonald's signature crispy pie shell. Definitely worth the indulgence!
Score: 7.8/10
