- Line the springform pan with the dough, letting in hang over the top about 1/2 an inch.
- Brush with the egg wash.
- Pour in the filling and press down well.
- Roll out the reserved dough, place over the pan, trim pastry and crimp edges sealing well. Brush with remaining egg wash.
- Bake in oven for about 1 hour, until golden and heated through. Best made a day ahead and reheated at 350 for 40-45 minutes.
