2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cold butter

Refrigerate pie shell until ready to use.
Preheat the oven to 350°.

Using a whisk, stir to mix everything into a thick, rich sauce.
Pour this evenly over the peaches.
Place the pin on the center shelf of the oven.
Bake until the custard is set and the crust is handsomely browned, about 30 minutes.
Topping-in the bowl of a food processor, combine the butter, sugar, flour, and cinnamon.
Pulse the machine on and off, until the mixture resembles small peas.
