Berry pie with mascarpone
Description
It pairs perfectly with tea and coffee. You can use any berries for the pie, but if they are very juicy, dust the berries on top with cornstarch. If you like sweeter pies, sprinkle it with icing sugar after it has cooled. This is a great choice with tea, coffee, or milk. Serve cooled or slightly warm.

Place the pie in a hot oven and bake at 180 degrees for 40–45 minutes. The pastry should turn golden brown, and the filling should set and stop jiggling. Remove the finished pie from the oven and let it cool completely, then remove it from the tin.
