Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees with rack in center. In a medium bowl, toss apples and lemon juice. Gently fold in raspberries. Set aside. Coat an 8- or 9-inch ovenproof plate with butter. Set aside.
- Divide the pate brisee in half; roll out one half on a lightly floured surface, to a circle 1 inch larger than the plate, about 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to prepared plate. Mound the fruit in the center of the plate, and sprinkle with 1/2 cup sugar. Brush the edge of the pastry with water to seal crust.
- Roll out remaining pastry, a few inches larger than the plate, and place on top of the fruit. Trim off any excess, then turn the edges under to seal. Flute the edges with fingers or a fork, and make 2 or 3 slits in the top for steam to escape. Brush egg wash evenly over cake, and sprinkle with remaining sugar. Place plate on a sheet pan to catch any drips. Bake 40 to 50 minutes, until crust is golden and fruit is bubbling. Let cool on a wire rack 10 minutes before serving.
