Preparation
Move oven rack to the lowest level and preheat to 375°F.
Blind-bake pie crust for 10 minutes then remove from oven.
To prepare the streusel, mix the flour, brown sugar, oats, crystallized ginger, and salt together in a small bowl. Cut in the butter, mixing until coarse, pea-sized crumbs form.
To make the pie filling, whisk together sugar, corn starch, and spices until combined. Toss gently with peaches in a large bowl.
Place peach mixture in a large pot on medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula to prevent sticking, then simmer for 5 minutes, until liquid has thickened and the peaches are tender but still retain their shape.
Scoop peach filling into pie crust and level out with a spatula. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top, then bake for 20–25 minutes, until the streusel is golden brown and filling is bubbling.
Remove pie from oven and let cool at least 2 hours before cutting and serving.
