BERRY HAND PIES
These hand-held pies are sold at breakfast time at Back in the Day Bakery in Savannah, Ga., but they are also a perfect summery dessert. Cheryl Day, an owner, said that she uses less sugar than many Southern bakers do, and likes to round out the flavor of sweet summer fruit with salt and lemon. The difference between a hand pie and a turnover is in the shape. (Hand pies are half moons, and turnovers are triangles.) You can make this recipe either way.

Steps:
- Prepare the dough: On a floured surface, roll out each disk of dough into a 10-inch square, each about 1/8-inch thick. Using a 5-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 4 disks from each piece of dough. Transfer disks to a baking sheet (it's OK if they overlap slightly), cover and refrigerate until firm, at least 10 minutes.
- Prepare the berry filling: In a medium bowl, combine the berries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest and juice, and sea salt. Stir gently until evenly coated, then set aside.
- Remove the disks from the refrigerator and lightly brush the edges of each disk with the egg wash. Spoon about 1/4 cup berry filling onto each disk, leaving a 1-inch border around the rim. (You might have some extra filling.)
- Working with one disk at a time, leaving one half of the dough on the baking sheet, gently fold the other half of each round of dough over the filling to make a half circle and press the edges together with your fingers to seal. If any of the filling is oozing out of the sides, remove a few berries at a time until the hand pie seals easily. Using a fork, crimp the rounded edge of each hand pie. Repeat with remaining disks.
- Cover the hand pies with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour to set the crusts. Refrigerate the remaining egg wash.
- When you are ready to bake, position a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 425 degrees. Line another baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Remove the hand pies from the refrigerator and brush the tops with the remaining egg wash. Using a paring knife, cut 3 small slits in the top of each hand pie to create steam vents. Transfer the hand pies to the lined baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the hand pies are golden and the filling is bubbly. Let cool for 10 minutes, then serve warm.
- The hand pies can be cooled completely and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
MIXED BERRY PIE
Here's a delightful way to enjoy summertime fruits. If you're short on one of the berries, just make up the amount with one of the other fruits in the pie. -Elaine Moody, Clever, Missouri

BLACKBERRY HAND PIES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
- Add the blackberries and granulated sugar to a medium saucepan and heat over medium. Cook the berries, mashing with a potato masher or the back of a spoon, until they start to break down and release their juices, about 2 minutes. Mix together the cornstarch and lemon juice in a small bowl. Add the cornstarch mixture and the lemon zest to the berries and stir until there are no more lumps. Continue to stir until the filling begins to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, transfer to a bowl and let cool slightly.
- Roll one of the pie doughs out on a lightly floured surface until about 1/8-inch thick. Use a 5-inch round cookie cutter, or the rim of a bowl, to cut out as many rounds as you can. Repeat with remaining dough round, gather the dough scraps and reroll as necessary to get 8 rounds.
- Place 1 cube of cream cheese and 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of a dough round. Fold the dough over into a crescent and crimp the edge with a fork. Place on one of the lined baking sheets. Repeat with remaining pie dough rounds, cream cheese and filling. Whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Brush all the filled pies with the egg wash, sprinkle with the raw sugar and cut small vents into the pies. (If you brush them after venting, the egg will cover the vent!) Bake until the pies are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

- Whisk all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, 1 tablespoon sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Cut butter into the flour using a pastry blender or your fingertips, leaving some pea-sized chunks remaining. Add just enough water to moisten, tossing with a fork to combine. The mixture will become shaggy and start to come together. (Note: There will be 2 to 3 tablespoons dry mixture in the bottom of the bowl.) Empty the shaggy dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Use the wrap to press the dough into a disk. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes. Divide the dough into 10 pieces and form each one into a disk.
- Arrange two oven racks evenly in upper and lower thirds of oven. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Lightly dust work surface with flour. Roll each dough disk into a 6-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Transfer the dough rounds to the prepared baking sheets, spacing evenly.
- Stir raspberries, blueberries, cornstarch and 1/3 cup sugar together in a medium bowl. Using about 2 tablespoons berry mixture for each dough round, divide the berry mixture among the dough rounds, placing it on half of each round and leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Do not overfill. Brush egg mixture along the edge of half of the circle. Fold the dough in half to cover the berry mixture. Crimp edges with a fork to seal.
