Pie pastry emergency

[Forestking]

Can I use melted butter to glaze puff pastry prior to putting the pie in the oven, the packet says either use egg wash or milk but have neither, will using butter cause the pastry to burn before the pie is cooked.

Melt the butter first, skim off the surface & just use the yellow liquid part.
Clarified butter has a much higher burning point than unclarified.
