The crumbs should begin to form larger clusters. If you pinch some of the dough and it holds together, itu2019s ready. If the dough falls apart, add 2 to 4 more tablespoons of water and continue to press until dough comes together.
- Remove dough from bowl and place in a mound on a clean surface. Work the dough just enough to form a ball. Cut ball in half then form each half into discs. Wrap each disc with plastic wrap and refrigerate or freeze while you work not he filling.

- Roll out each disc of dough and cut into a total of 6-8 circles per disc. while you're working on one dough, leave the other in the freezer. Assemble the pies on a parchment lined baking sheet. Spoon the filling in the middle leaving a 1/4 inch border. Brush the edges with the beaten egg . Lay the other half of the dough over the filling and seal the edges by crimping with the back of a fork. Repeat until you've used all the dough.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Brush the tops of the pies with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse salt/sugar. Transfer to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. It's OK if the edges get dark. Serve with ice cream. Enjoy!
