Blueberry Nectarine Pie

You are looking at a "first". Mike's first "make & bake" pie came out better than expected. He used a recipe from "Baking with Julia" by Dorie Greenspan. Sliced nectarines and fresh blueberries make up the filling, half of which are sauteed in sugar, flour and lemon zest until gently boiling. When mixed with the remaining fruit, fresh lemon juice was added. The butter crust is Martha Stewart's pate brisee recipe - it turned out quite flakey, buttery and held up nicely with all the blueberry and nectarine juices. An egg wash atop the crust and a dusting of turbinado sugar finished the preparation and added just the right "sweetness"!
