Ingredients

For the Crust:

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into bits

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons ice water plus additional if necessary

1 egg

For the filling:

6 cups of your favorite fruit, washed, peeled and chopped

2 tbs flour

1/4 cup brown sugar

2 tbs fresh lemon juice

1 tbs lemon zest

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut into bits

Optional: cinnamon or nutmeg, to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 425°F

In a large bowl blend the flour, the butter, and the salt until the mixture resembles crumbly meal. Add the 2 tablespoons ice water, toss the mixture until the water is incorporated, adding the additional ice water if necessary to form a dough, and form the dough into two balls

Roll out half the dough on a lightly floured surface, fit it into a 9-inch (1 quart) pie plate, and trim the edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang

In a large bowl toss together fruit, flour, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and any optional spices

Fill pie and dot the top with slices of butter

Roll out the remaining dough into a round on the lightly floured surface

Trim the dough leaving a 1-inch overhang, fold the overhang under the bottom crust, pressing the edge to seal it, and crimp the edge decoratively

Brush the crust with beaten egg and sprinkle the pie lightly with sugar

cut slits in the top crust

Cover the edges with foil and bake the pie for 20 minutes

Take off the foil and reduce the temperature to 375°F

and bake the pie for 30 to 35 minutes more, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling. Transfer the pie to a rack and let it cool
