Ingredients
Dough
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter cold, cut into cubes
- ½ cup ice water
Filling
- 2 cups strawberries hulled and diced
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Assembly
- 1 egg beaten, for egg wash
- 1 tablespoon sugar for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add cold butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- In another bowl, mix strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Set aside.
- Roll out one disc of dough on a floured surface to about ⅛-inch thickness. Cut out circles using a cookie cutter or a glass. Repeat with the second disc of dough.
- Place a spoonful of strawberry filling in the center of half of the dough circles. Brush the edges with beaten egg, top with another dough circle, and press the edges with a fork to seal. Cut small slits on top for steam to escape.
- Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar. Place the pies on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
