Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• ¹⁄₄ cup Granulated sugar
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoon Cold water
• 2 cup Mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 beaten Egg
• 1 tablespoon Turbinado sugar

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Gradually add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape them into discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
4. In a separate bowl, toss the mixed berries with cornstarch and lemon juice until well coated.
5. Roll out each dough portion into a circle on a lightly floured surface. Spoon the berry mixture onto one half of each circle, leaving a border around the edges. Fold the other half of the dough over the berries and press the edges to seal.
6. Place the hand pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
7. Bake for 25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
