Closed fruit pie
Description
The pastry is easy and quick to prepare. This recipe is a great idea for summer. You can use any fruits you have on hand for the filling. The dough takes just a few minutes to make, so it's definitely suitable for busy home cooks :) Serve the cake warm or cooled, perhaps with a scoop of ice cream. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
