Ingredients
Crust
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • ½ tsp Kosher salt
  • 4 oz. cold unsalted butter chopped up
  • 2 Tbsp. ice water
  • 1 egg white, lightly beaten
  • 1 Tbsp. turbinado or Sugar in the Raw
Filling
  • 2 peaches, pitted and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 cups cherries
  • 1 Tbsp. flour
  • 1 Tbsp. brown sugar
Instructions
  1. To make the crust, combine ½ cup of the flour and the salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the butter and mix until just combined. Add remaining flour and combine. Add the water and mix until the dough comes together. Pat into flat disc, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for about 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 375F.
  3. Meanwhile, combine the fruit in a medium bowl. Sprinkle the flour and sugar over and toss to combine.
  4. Roll the dough into a 12 to 14-inch circle. Rough edges are ok! Place on a piece of parchment on a rimmed baking sheet. Pile the fruit in the center, leaving a 1½-inch border. Fold the edges up around the fruit. Brush with the egg white and sprinkle with the sugar.
  5. Bake for about 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
