Lattice Fruit Pie

Ingredients

• 2 rounds pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
• 4 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
• ¾ cup sugar
• 3 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• ½ cup walnuts, chopped
• 1 large egg (for egg wash)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming excess.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine 4 cups berries, 3/4 cup sugar, 3 tbsp cornstarch, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Stir gently until berries are coated.

3. 3

   Pour the berry mixture into the pie crust. Sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped walnuts evenly over the filling.

4. 4

   Roll out the second crust and cut into 1-inch strips. Arrange strips in a lattice pattern over the filling, pressing edges to seal.

5. 5

   Beat 1 egg with 1 tbsp water and brush over the lattice. Bake for 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 375°F (190°C) and bake until crust is golden and filling is bubbling, about 25-30 minutes more.

6. 6

   Let cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing, so the filling sets.
