Instructions
Step 1
On a lightly floured surface, roll 1 disk of dough into a 12" round. Fit into a 9" pie plate. Trim edges, leaving 1" dough overhanging edge of plate; chill 30 minutes.
Step 2
Simmer berries, sugar, cornstarch, juice, zest, and salt in a 4-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat until juices become a slightly thickened sauce, 18-20 minutes; let cool to room temperature.
Step 3
Heat oven to 400°. Pour berry mixture over dough. Roll remaining disk of dough into a 12" round and place over top of pie. Pinch top and bottom edges together and fold under; using the tines of a fork, crimp edges. Brush with egg mixture and cut several 1"-long slits in top of pie. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling, about 1 hour. Let cool completely before serving.
