In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently with a fork until the dough just comes together.
Divide the dough into two equal portions, shape into discs, wrap with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one dough disc into a 12-inch circle. Fit it into a 9-inch pie pan, trimming any overhanging edges.
In a large bowl, combine the raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss until the raspberries are evenly coated.
Pour the raspberry mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Roll out the second dough disc into a 12-inch circle. Place it over the raspberry filling and trim any overhang. Press the edges together to seal and crimp if desired.
Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Brush the top crust with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, then bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden-brown and the filling is bubbling.
Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving to allow the filling to set.
