Preparation Method Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the peaches, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir well to coat the peaches.
- Pour the peach mixture into a greased 9-inch pie plate.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream and pie crust mix. Add the water and stir until a dough forms.
- Roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle. Place the dough over the peaches and trim the edges.
- Fold the edges under and crimp with your fingers. Cut slits in the top of the crust to allow steam to escape.
- Sprinkle the cold butter cubes over the crust.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.

- Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
