Two rounds all-butter pie dough (enough for 1 double crust pie)
21/4 lbs. ripe peaches (about 10-12 medium peaches)
1/2 cup sugar
2 tbsp. flour
2 tbsp. cornstarch
Dash of grated nutmeg
1 tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tbsp. dark rum (optional)
2 tbsp. cold butter, cut into pieces
1 large egg beaten with 1 tbsp. water, for egg wash

1
Preheat the oven to 425 F and place a baking sheet on the lowest oven rack to catch dripping juices. Roll out half of the pie dough to approximately 12-inches round so that it fully lines a 9-inch pie plate with some overhang. Transfer the lined pie plate to the refrigerator until ready to use. Meanwhile, prep the filling. Peel the peaches and slice them to 1/4-inch thick slices.** In a large bowl, combine the peach slices with the sugar, flour, cornstarch, and nutmeg. Toss to coat. Add in the lemon juice and rum and stir once more until well combined.
2
Remove the lined pie plate from the refrigerator and pour in the peach filling in an even layer. Dot the top of the peaches with the pieces of cold butter. Roll out the remaining pie dough to a 12-inch round. Cut into strips with a pastry cutter or paring knife and weave together to form a lattice top. Trim away excess dough and crimp the edges together. Lightly brush the top and edges of the pie dough with the egg wash.
3
Bake for 20 minutes, then decrease the oven temperature to 350 F and continue baking until the pie is golden brown and the juices are bubbling, about 30-40 minutes more. (Check on the pie a few times during baking. If it is browning too quickly, tent loosely with foil and continue baking as directed.) Remove the finished pie to a wire rack and let cool until just warm, about 2 hours. Slice and serve.
