Pour a thin layer of the custard into the prepared crust. Starting from the center, arrange the peach slices in a a spiral pattern. Pour the remaining custard over the top.
Bake at 325º for 35-40 minutes, rotating after about 25 minutes. The pie is finished when the outer two inches are set but the center still wobbles slightly. Be careful not to over bake or the custard can separate. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack for about an hour. Serve at room temperature or chilled.

Barbara's Notes + Tips
Store this in the refrigerator.
You can use frozen peaches, just let them thaw before adding. Canned peaches will have too much liquid for this pie.
This is great with a spoonful of whipped cream on top.
