Struggling to make use of `Updater<T>`

So, I'm trying to replicate React Final Form's parse and format properties, but I've hit a snag with Updater<T>. Trying to type-narrow handleChange's callback param so I can apply a parse function to it, gives me the following error 
This expression is not callable.
  Not all constituents of type 'UpdaterFn<T, T> | (T & Function)' are callable.
    Type 'T & Function' has no call signatures.ts(2349)
This expression is not callable.

I'm probably going about this all wrong, so if there's a much simpler built-in way of doing this that I haven't figured out yet, I'd appreciate the help 😅 For reference 
// The use of `any` here is fine, because tanstack form handles typechecking for

// for the purpose of wrapping it for form components
export type TanstackField<T> = FieldApi<any, any, any, any, T>;

// No type transforms here... yet
type WrapFieldData<T> = {
    parse?: (v: T) => T;
    format?: (v: T) => T;
};
export const wrapField = <T>(
    field: TanstackField<T>,
    enhancers: WrapFieldData<T> = {}
): TanstackField<T> => {
    const parse = enhancers.parse ? enhancers.parse : identity;
    const format = enhancers.format ? enhancers.format : identity;

    return {
        ...field,
        handleChange: v => {
            const val = typeof v === "function" ? v() : v;
            return field.handleChange(parse(val));
        },
        state: { ...field.state, value: format(field.state.value) },
        // Typescript complains about these 2 missing methods, despite the fact
        // that they'll get splatted there at runtime
        runValidator: field.runValidator,
        setErrorMap: field.setErrorMap
    };
};

A solution that I've decided to settle with in the meantime, is to manually cast v to UpdaterFn, but I'd rather have a solution that didn't use casting. I'd rather not lose type if I can help it. 
handleChange: v => {
    // Need to manually cast v to UpdaterFn because typescript tries to
    // distribute the Function type across the union for some strange reason
    const val =
        typeof v === "function"
            ? (v as UpdaterFn<T>)(field.state.value)
            : v;

    return field.handleChange(parse(val));
},
handleChange: v => {
    // Need to manually cast v to UpdaterFn because typescript tries to
    // distribute the Function type across the union for some strange reason
    const val =
        typeof v === "function"
            ? (v as UpdaterFn<T>)(field.state.value)
            : v;

    return field.handleChange(parse(val));
},
