Pour the turkey mixture over the bottom pie crust. Cover with top crust and seal edges, Make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Optional: Brush the top with egg wash.
1 egg + 1 tablespoon of milk

Cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Remove the pie crust from refrigerator and let sit on counter for 10 minutes or until pliable. The pie crust may crack when extending it into the pan when it’s cold.
