Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cups (155g) All-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (115g) Unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1 tbsp (8g) Granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp (3g) Salt
- 3–5 tbsp (45-75ml) Ice-cold water
- 3 cups (450g) Fresh mulberries, rinsed and dried
- 1/3 cup (65g) Granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp (8g) Cornstarch
- 1 tsp (5ml) Lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp (2g) Ground cinnamon
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tbsp (12g) Turbinado sugar
Instructions:
- Whisk flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl.
- Work the chilled butter cubes into the flour using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized lumps remaining.
- Drizzle in ice water one tablespoon at a time, stirring with a fork until the dough just begins to clump together.
- Shape dough into a flat disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- In a medium bowl, gently toss the mulberries with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
- Let the mulberry mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the starch to dissolve and juices to release.
- On a floured surface, roll the chilled dough into a 12-inch (30cm) circle and transfer to parchment paper.
- Mound the mulberry mixture in the center, leaving a 2-inch (5cm) border of dough.
- Gently fold the edges of the dough over the fruit, pleating it as you go, leaving the center open.
- Brush the crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
- Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 30–35 minutes until the crust is mahogany-colored and the filling is bubbling.
