In a large bowl, mix the gluten-free flour and xanthan gum together. Add the cold butter and rub it into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Add cold water a tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes while preparing the filling.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet. Cook until browned on all sides, then remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add onions and garlic, cooking until the onions are soft and translucent. Stir in the mushrooms and cook for a further 5 minutes.
Return the beef to the skillet. Add the beef stock and gluten-free Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer and let it cook gently for 45 minutes, or until the beef is tender.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to form a slurry. Stir this into the beef mixture and simmer until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool.
Preheat the oven to 200Β°C (400Β°F).
Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan, ensuring you have enough for both the base and the top crust.
Lay the dough in the pie pan, pressing it gently across the base and sides. Pour in the cooled beef and mushroom mixture.
Place the top crust over the filling, crimping the edges to seal. Cut slits in the top for steam to escape.
Brush the top with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before serving.
