Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed or 1 pie crust
1 lb strawberry, washed and quartered
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
juice from half lemon
water for brushing pastry dough
turbinado sugar for sprinkling over pastry dough

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Combine strawberries with the sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice and set aside.
  • While the strawberries are marinating, roll out the puff pastry sheet or pie crust on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1/8" thick.
  • Transfer to lined baking sheet.
  • Spoon strawberry mixture into the middle of the pastry sheet, leaving about an inch or two border all around.
  • Gently fold the sides of the pastry, a little at a time, up over some of the berries, leaving the fruit in the center exposed.
  • Brush top of pastry lightly with water and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Bake for 30-35 minutes until crust is golden and strawberries are bubbling.
  • Let sit for 5-10 minutes before cutting.
