set temperature to 350°F, and set time to
35 minutes. Press the setting dial to begin
preheating.
2 In a small bowl, add the egg and lightly whisk

3 Prepare the crostata by unrolling the pie dough
on a clean work surface. With fingers or a pastry
brush, coat the pie dough with the egg wash.
4 Add the filling to the center of the dough,
leaving a 2-inch rim around the perimeter free
of filling. Fold the edges of the dough up and
over the filling 6 times, leaving the center open.
5 With fingers or a pastry brush, lightly sprinkle
the outer rim of the crostata with sugar.
