Print Recipe

This pie is the epitome of comfort food, featuring a golden crust and a cozy filling that warms the heart.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6–8 tablespoons ice water
  • 4 cups mixed fruit (apples, berries, or peaches)
  • 1/2 cup sugar (for filling)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Stir in ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until mixture forms a ball. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
  4. Roll out the dough on a floured surface and fit into a pie pan.
  5. In another bowl, combine mixed fruit, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and cornstarch.
  6. Pour the fruit mixture into the pie crust.
  7. Roll out the remaining dough for the top crust, place it over the filling, and seal the edges.
  8. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 30-35 minutes.
  10. Let cool before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the filling.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra comfort.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
