1/4 teaspoon salt

5 cups peeled and sliced fresh apricots

1-1/2 cups fresh blackberries

1 large egg

1 tablespoon water

Directions

  1. Defrost Pie crust
  2. In a large bowl, whisk sugar, cornstarch and salt. Add apricots and berries; toss to coat. Let stand 10 minutes. Filling will be very juicy.

Roll remaining dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; cut into strips about 1/2 in. wide. Arrange over filling in a lattice pattern. Trim and seal strips to edge of bottom crust; flute edge.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk egg with water. Brush over lattice strips; sprinkle with sugar. Bake 20 minutes.
