Filling Preparation
- Start by making the strawberry filling: mash fresh strawberries and combine with water in a saucepan, boil, strain, and mix with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
- For the blueberry filling, combine fresh blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, and a splash of water, cook until thickened, then cool.
Pie Crust Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out your pie crust to 1/8-inch thickness and cut out circles with a four-inch biscuit cutter.
- Press the circles into a greased muffin tin, ensuring they fit snugly.
Filling the Pies
- Spoon the cooled fruit fillings into each pie crust, filling them about 3/4 full to avoid overflow.
Adding Topping
- Roll out any remaining pie crust and cut into shapes to place on top of pies, sealing the edges carefully.
- Brush with egg wash and sprinkle coarse sugar on top.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until golden and bubbly.
Cooling and Serving
- Cool in the muffin tin for at least one hour, then run a knife around edges and flip to release.
