Ingredients: The filling

1# Each sliced apples, pears, and strawberries
1/4 Cup All purpose flour
1 Tbsp. Cornstarch
1 Lemon juiced
Pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg
1 Cup Sugar
Pinch of salt

Procedure:

1. In a large bowl, combine the fruit with 1/2 the sugar and a pinch of salt. Stir till thoroughly combined. Allow to sit for at least a half hour.
2. Strain the liquid that forms and reserve.
3. Over medium heat, reduce the strained liquid until it becomes very syrupy. About 5 minutes.
4. Return the syrup to the fruit mixture and add the remaining ingredients. Stir till combined.

Ingredients: Pie crust
(Multiply this recipe by 2 but make separately)

1 1/3 Cup All purpose flour
5 Tbsp. Chilled water
4 Oz. Cubed chilled unsalted butter
Pinch of salt and sugar

Procedure:

1. In a large bowl, add all ingredients minus the water.
2. With a fork, incorporate the butter into the flour by pressing the butter into the flour. Do this until the mixture becomes crumbly. It takes some elbow grease so be patient
3.Add the water and mix till the dough is formed.
4. With the palm of your hand knead the dough briefly. Not too much though!
5. Wrap the dough with cellophane and chill for at least 20 minutes.
6. Flour a dry clean surface. Flour a rolling pin.
7. Starting from the center, roll the dough out until it is about 1 inch larger than your pie dish.

Assembly:

1. Line the pan with the dough.
2. Add the fruit mixture and even it out so it is level.
3. Prepare the lattice top. I can’t describe it in words so you have to watch the video.
4. Brush the top of the pie with an egg wash and sprinkle additional sugar on top.
5. Place the pie on a lined baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 1-1/2 hours. It will be golden brown and bubbly when done.
6. Allow to cool for at least an hour and serve.
Enjoy guys!!
