Seal and flute edges. , Bake at 375° for 50-55 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9 inch pie plate with half of the dough and brush with half of the beaten egg white.
• Combine the sliced peaches, strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries in a large bowl; set aside. Mix the flour, cornstarch, brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, and nutmeg together. Gently fold the flour mixture into the fruit, taking care not to crush the berries. Transfer the fruit mixture into the pastry-lined pie plate. The filling will be piled high but will cook down. Dot with butter.
• Top the filled pie with a lattice crust or a full top crust (cut decorative slits in the crust to allow steam to escape). Brush the top crust or lattice with the remaining egg white. Combine 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1 tablespoon sugar and sprinkle the mixture on the crust. Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch drips.
• Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 45 to 60 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the pie set for 30 minutes; transfer to a cooling rack. The filling will be loose if served warm, but will tighten up when the pie is completely cooled.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place peaches and berries in a colander for about 15 minutes to drain any excess fluid , then transfer to a large bowl. Gently toss with sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Transfer to a pie crust. Dot with butter, and top with remaining crust. Cut vents in top crust, and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
• Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until crust is golden brown.

Steps:

• Combine the flour, sugar, salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to combine.
• Scatter the butter and shortening over the top of the flour mixture and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the water a few tablespoons at a time and pulse until the dough just comes together. Remove the dough from the machine and lightly knead on a flat surface until it just comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine peaches, sugars, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, peach eau de vie and cornstarch or tapioca in a large bowl and mix until well combined. Toss the blackberries with the cassis. Let sit for 10 minutes, then use a slotted spoon to spoon the berries into the peaches, and toss.
• Divide the dough in half and roll each half out on a lightly floured surface to 13 to 14- inch round. Transfer 1 of the rounds into the bottom of a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Spoon the fruit into the crust using a slotted spoon. Add some of the juices that have accumulated in the bowl. Scatter the butter over the top. Roll up remaining dough on rolling pin and unroll atop peach mixture. Trim edges of both crusts to 3/4-inch overhang. Fold edges over; press to seal. Crimp edges. Cut 6 slits in top crust to allow steam to escape. Brush top of the pie with the cream and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar. Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake on the bottom rack of the oven until the crust is golden and juices bubble thickly through slits, covering edges of crust with foil if browning too quickly, about 1 hour 20 to 30 minutes, until the bottom crust is brown and the juices bubbling. Cool pie 3 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Mix the blackberries, peaches, cornstarch, and sugar in a large bowl.
• Press one of the pie crusts into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan. Pour the blackberry mixture into the pie crust. Cover with the remaining pie crust. Crimp the edges of the two crusts together to seal. Cut slits in the top of the pie to vent. Brush the top with the melted butter. Sprinkle the cinnamon and nutmeg over the top.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue to cook until top crust is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Press one pie crust pastry into a 9-inch pie plate. Cut the remaining pie crust pastry into 3/4-inch strips to be used for the lattice top.
• Mix peaches, cherries, blueberries, and lemon juice together in a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup white sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt; stir to coat. Pour fruit mixture into the prepared pie crust. Weave a lattice top over the fruit filling using the pie crust strips. Brush top crust with milk; sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon white sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C); bake until fruit filling is bubbling and lattice top is lightly browned, 45 to 50 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place one pie crust into a pie plate.
• Toss peaches and blueberries in a bowl with lemon juice. Mix sugar, tapioca, and salt in a small bowl and add to peach mixture; stir to combine. Allow fruit to rest for 15 minutes, then transfer to prepared pie plate. Scatter margarine pieces over fruit and brush the edge of the pie with water. Cover pie with remaining crust; press and seal the top and bottom crusts.
• Bake in preheated oven until crust is golden brown and fruit is bubbly 45 to 50 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, tapioca, and salt. Add peaches, blueberries, and lemon juice and toss to combine; let sit 15 minutes. Lightly flour a rolling pin and work surface and roll out half the dough to a 12-inch round. Place in a 9-inch glass pie plate and brush with egg white. Pour in fruit filling and dot with butter.
• Roll out remaining dough to a 12-inch round and place over fruit filling. Trim excess and crimp edges to seal. In a small bowl, lightly beat egg yolk with 1 tablespoon cold water. Brush top of dough with egg yolk mixture. With a paring knife, cut several small slits on top to vent. Set on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crust is deep golden brown and juices are bubbling, about 50 minutes. (Tent loosely with foil if crust browns too quickly.) Let pie cool completely on a wire rack, about 3 hours.

Steps:

• In large bowl combine sugar, flour, cornstarch, salt and nutmeg.
• Add fruit and vanilla, toss to mix.
• Let stand for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Line pie plate with bottom pastry, add filling.
• Dot with butter, Roll out remaining pastry, make lattice crust, seal and flute edges.
• Bake at 375 for 50-55 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly.
• Cool on wire rack.

Steps:

• For the crust: Place the flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade; pulse just to combine the ingredients. Drop in the butter and shortening and pulse only until the butter and shortening are cut into the flour. Don't overdo the mixing-what you're aiming for is to have some pieces the size of fat green peas and others the size of barley. Pulsing the machine on and off, gradually add the water until the dough looks evenly moistened and soft curds form.
• To roll out the dough: Scrape the dough out of the bowl and onto a work surface. Gather together and divide in half, then form into two disks. Place a disk between two pieces of parchment paper and, with a rolling pin, roll it out, continually turning it ⅛ of a turn and rolling until the disk is just bigger than the pie pan. Place into the buttered pie pan and trim the edges. Make a second disk of crust using the same method; then place both in the refrigerator to chill.
• For the filling: Place the sugar in a large bowl and grate the lemon zest directly over the sugar; combine the sugar and zest with your fingers. Add the peaches and blueberries and toss, then let sit for about 5 minutes. Taste the filling and add a squirt of lemon juice and more sugar if needed. Stir in a pinch of salt and flour and gently mix.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Assemble the pie: Remove the pie shell and top crust from the refrigerator and pile the filling into the chilled pie shell. Place water around the edge of the shell, then lay the flat crust on top of the fruit. Squeeze the edges of the top and bottom together; use a fork to crimp the dough to seal it. Brush the crust with an egg wash. Sprinkle sugar on top, then use a knife to make steam vents in the dough, along with a hole in the center. Place pie on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake 20-30 minutes; then check on the pie, lower the temperature to 375 degrees F, and bake another 30 minutes. (If the crust is browning too quickly, lay a piece of foil on top before returning to the oven.)
• The pie is finished when the crust is a beautiful golden brown and the filling is bubbling up through the slits. Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to rest for 30 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• To prepare the pie shell, divide the ball of dough in half, setting one half to the side. On a clean, lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it forms a 10-inch circle. Fold the circle in half, place it in a 9-inch pie plate so that the edges of the circle drop over the rim, and unfold the dough to completely cover the pie plate. Set the pie shell to the side while you make the filling.
• To prepare the filling, in a small bowl, mix together the sugar, cornstarch, tapioca, cinnamon, and salt. Place the peaches and blueberries in a large bowl and sprinkle them with the sugar mixture, making sure the fruit is thoroughly coated. Place the filling in the pie shell, distributing it evenly. Dot the filling with the butter.
• To prepare the top crust, roll out the second half of the dough with a rolling pin until it forms a 10-inch circle. Fold the dough circle in half and place it over the filling, with the straight line of the half circle running down the middle of the pie. Unfold the circle so that the entire pie is covered. Using your thumb and index finger, crimp the edges of the pie together to seal in the filling, and then use a fork to puncture the top of the pie 5 or 6 times. Brush the top of the pie and crimped edges with heavy cream for a perfect, golden brown finish.
• To bake, place the pie plate on a baking sheet and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until the crust is browned and the juices bubble over. Transfer the pie plate to a wire cooling rack and allow the pie to cool and set for 1 1/2 hours before serving.
• Peach-Blueberry Pie is best served either at room temperature or warmed at 350°F for about 10 minutes. It will keep at room temperature overnight and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
• Bakers frequently use tapioca as a thickening agent. When purchasing tapioca, be sure to select a quick-cooking (also labeled "instant") variety, rather than regular tapioca. Quick-cooking tapioca tolerates the baking process better than the regular variety, and provides the perfect pie filling consistency. Quick-cooking tapioca can be found in the baking aisle of your local grocery store, near the puddings.

Steps:

• Prepare crust: In medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and 1/4 cup sugar.
• With pastry blender or 2 knives used scissors fashion, cut in butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
• Add 1/2 cup cream and stir with fork until dough comes together. Gather dough into a ball and place on lightly floured sheet of waxed paper. With floured rolling pin, roll dough to a 9-inch round.
• Slide waxed paper onto cookie sheet and refrigerate dough until ready to use.
• In cup, mix cinnamon and remaining sugar.
• Prepare fruit filling: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place cookie sheet lined with foil in oven. In 4-quart saucepan, stir sugar, water and cornstarch until cornstarch dissolves; stir in peaches.
• Heat to boiling over medium-high heat, stirring often. Reduce heat to low; simmer 2 minutes, stirring often. Remove from heat; gently stir in berries. Pour filling into 9-inch deep dish pie plate.
• Immediately, while filling is hot, remove dough round from refrigerator and, using waxed paper, invert dough over fruit mixture. Peef off paper. Cut 4-inch X in center of round, fold back points to make square opening.
• Brush dough with remaining cream; sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
• Bake pie on foil-lined cookie sheet 35-40 minutes or until fruit is bubbly in center. If crust is browning too quickly, loosely cover pie with foil after 25 minutes. Cool pie on wire rack.
