Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Stir together the blueberries, strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and orange zest in a large bowl. Pour into an unbaked 9-inch pie crust. Cut butter into small pieces and dot the top of the fruit.

Step 2

Roll out the remaining pie crust scraps and cut shapes using cookie cutters dipped in flour. (I used different sized star shaped cutters.) Place the shapes on top of the pie in a decorative pattern.

Step 3

Beat together the egg and water. Lightly brush the mixture onto the pie crust shapes and around the perimeter of the crust. Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake for 50-55 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown. Let cool on wire rack completely before cutting.
