Drupey Pie

By: Karen 
"I added fresh, ripe nectarines and apricots to this sour cherry pie. These fruits are drupe fruits meaning they are fleshy with a hard stone or seed in the middle. The pie was summery and delicious! I really like to use turbinado sugar--it's less processed and has a good flavor--but white sugar would be fine, too."

Original Recipe Yield 1 - 9 inch pie
 

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 7 tablespoons ice water
  •  
  • 2 cups pitted sour cherries
  • 3 nectarines, pitted and chopped
  • 3 fresh apricots, pitted and sliced
  • 5/8 cup turbinado sugar
  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 1 egg yolk

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place cherries, nectarines and apricots into a colander to drain off any excess liquid.
  2. To Make Dough: In a medium bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut 3/4 cup of butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Pour in one tablespoon of water at a time until the dough sticks together. Add additional water if necessary. Divide dough into two parts. Roll out one half toa circle 1/8 of an inch thick, then place in a 9 inch pie pan. Roll out the other half of the dough and cut into long strips about 1/2 inch wide. Set aside.
  3. To Make Filling: Place the drained fruit mixture into a medium bowl, Stir in the sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch and flour; pour into the prepared pie pan. Dot with the remaining two tablespoons of butter. Arrange the pastry strips into a lattice top and crimp edges. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and teaspoon of water, and use a pastry brush to coat just the lattice strips--not the edges.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, until the crust begins to brown. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool a bit before serving.
