Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C). Dotdash Meredith Food Studios Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate with one pie crust. Lightly brush crust with egg to prevent dough from becoming soggy later. Set second crust aside.

Pour over peaches and mix until combined. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios Pour into pie crust and dot with butter. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios Cover filling with remaining pie crust. Flute the edges to seal or use a fork dipped in egg to press them down. Brush remaining egg on top, then cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until crust is brown and juice begins to bubble through the vents, 30 to 35 more minutes.
