Steps:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400°F.
- Toss apricots with cornstarch and 1/2 cup sugar until coated.
- Heat butter in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then stir in apricot mixture. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, then immediately transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
- Fold pie dough into quarters and trim 1 inch from rounded edge. Unfold (trimmed round should be 8 inches in diameter) and put on top of fruit. Brush pastry with milk and sprinkle with remaining tablespoon sugar.
- Bake until apricot filling is bubbling and crust is golden, about 20 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before serving.
