Gather the flour mixture into a ball and knead gently only as much time as it takes to come together in a ball. 5. On a lightly floured surface, slightly flatten the pastry, then roll from the center to the edge into a 13-inch circle. Place the pattern on the pastry near one edge.

Place half of the desired Fruit Filling on half of the pastry circle, leaving a ¼-inch border. Brush the bare edge with water. Fold the empty half of the pastry over the filling. Using a fork, press around the edge of the pastry to seal it. Poke the top in a few places with a fork.
