Slab Peach Pie

Ingredients:

• 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 6 cups fresh sliced peaches
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 rectangular pieces of pie dough rolled out to approximately 11×14-inches*(I used premade pie crusts )
• 1 egg, beaten

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 400-degrees F. Position oven rack in bottom third of oven.
2. In large bowl, whisk together brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, ginger and salt. Add peaches and lemon juice; toss to coat. Set aside.
3. Fit one piece of pastry dough into an ungreased 9x13x1-inch sheet pan (quarter sheet pan). Allow access overhang. Do not trim. Pour peach filling into crust and spread evenly.
4. Place remaining piece of dough on top.** Pinch edges of two crusts together to seal, tuck under any extra pastry crust, as needed. Use a knife to cut vents across top of pie crust.
5. Brush crust with beaten egg. Optional: evenly sprinkle top with about a tablespoon of sugar.
6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until bubbly and golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside to cool completely before slicing. Serve with vanillia icecream
