Peach Pouch Pie with Berries

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

FILLING
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 14-inch
round. Using a 9-inch pie pan as a template, place it rim down on the dough
and cut out a circle about 2 inches larger than the rim with a pastry
wheel. Slide a long metal spatula underneath the dough to loosen it. Fold
the dough round in half, center it over the pie pan and open it. Gently
press the dough against the bottom and sides of the pan without stretching
it. The dough should drag on the table. Set the pie pan on a bowl to allow
the edge to hang down; refrigerate for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 450
degrees. Place a piece of foil on the bottom of the oven to catch any
drips.
Make the filling:
In a large bowl, whisk 2/3 cup of the sugar with the cornstarch. Gently
toss in the peaches. Let sit for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, remove the pie shell from the refrigerator. Gently toss the
peaches. Let sit for 5 minutes longer. Combine the blueberries and
raspberries and gently stir them into the peaches. Pour the fruit into the
pie shell and distribute it evenly. Scrape in all the liquid and any
undissolved sugar clinging to the bowl. When the dough is pliable, fold the
overhanging edge to cover the outer portion of the filling, leaving a
5-inch opening of exposed fruit in the center of the pie.
Using a pastry brush, moisten the surface of the dough with cold water.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 teaspoon sugar over the dough. Bake the pie on the
lower rack of the oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until the crust begins to
brown. Then lower the temperature to 375 degrees and bake for 35 to 45
minutes longer, until the fruit is bubbling and the crust is nicely
colored. Transfer to a rack to
cool for at least 2 hours.
Yield: One 9-inch pie
