These rustic pies are my go-to dessert when company shows up. (Non-bakers are soooo easily impressed.) I usually and have pie dough in the freezer and I keep a jar of flour, sugar and spices mixed up in the cupboard to use for these. I put the fruit in the rolled out pastry and sprinkle on the dry ingredients as I go, keeping it as simple as possible. I put just a milk wash on the crust also sprinkle on (white sanding) sugar. To serve I trim up the parchment paper a little and present it on a wooded cutting board.
