Lattice Fruit Pie

Step 1

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

Step 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.

Step 3

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

Step 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.

Step 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.

Step 6

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