Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel the peaches, remove the pits, and slice them into thin wedges. Place the peach slices in a large mixing bowl.
Add the raspberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Gently toss the mixture to coat the fruit evenly, ensuring the berries remain intact.
Roll out the pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges and crimp decoratively, if desired.
Pour the peach and raspberry filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the fruit filling, making sure to cover it completely.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, and bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and the crumb topping is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. This will allow the filling to set.
Serve the Peach Melba Pie at room temperature or slightly warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
