Peach Crumb Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups water
    3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
    2 tablespoons cornstarch
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    3 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
    3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 pinch black pepper
    2 lbs peaches, peeled, pitted and cut into wedges (about 3 cups)
    1/2 cup flour
    1 cup ground pecan pieces
    1/4 cup butter, cut into small pieces
    1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
    In a saucepan, combine the water, brown sugar, cornstarch, salt, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon of grated nutmeg, and pepper, whisk until smooth.
    Place the pan over high heat and bring to a boil.
    Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
    Place the peaches in a mixing bowl and pour the syrup over the peaches.
    Toss well and cool for 10 minutes.
    In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining cinnamon, remaining nutmeg, sugar, flour, pecans, and butter.
    Using your fingers, work the mixture together until it resembles a coarse crumb-like mixture.
    Pour the peaches into the prepared pie shell.
    Sprinkle the topping over the top of the peaches.
    Bake for 1 hour, or until the crust is golden.
