Peel and slice 3 peaches and set aside 1 for topping.

In a bowl, combine sliced peaches, corn starch, cream or half & half, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon; mix gently.

Pour the peach filling into the prepared crust.

For the topping, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then fold in vanilla extract and sugar.

Spread the whipped egg whites over the peach filling.

Slice the reserved peach and arrange it on top as decoration.

Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
