Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, about 5 minutes. Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- While the dough chills, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- In a separate bowl, toss the sliced peaches and fresh blackberries with granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Mix until the fruit is evenly coated.
- After the dough has chilled, turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll the dough into a 12-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the rolled dough onto your prepared baking sheet.
- Spoon the fruit filling into the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as you go.
- Brush the folded edges with beaten egg and sprinkle coarse sugar evenly over the crust. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Once baked, cool for about 10 minutes on the baking sheet. Serve warm, ideally with vanilla ice cream.

Notes
Use very cold butter and ice water for a flaky crust. Adjust sugar based on the ripeness of fruit. Drain excess juice to prevent a soggy bottom.
