Pro Tips for the Perfect Fruit Pie:

2. Gently Toss the Fruits: Combine the fruits with sugar and spices gently to maintain their integrity.
3. Avoid Sogginess: Adding a bit of flour to the fruit mixture helps thicken the juices.
4. Vent the Top Crust: Slits in the top crust allow steam to escape, preventing the crust from becoming soggy.
5. Golden Finish: An egg wash will give your pie a beautiful golden sheen.
