Top with filling of choice and spread evenly over uncooked pastry.
Then roll the second piece of pastry and put over the top of the filling. With four fingers pinch the sides of the pastry to seal the sides.
Brush some milk over the top. Then preheat your oven to 375ºf and bake this pastry for 35 to 40 minutes.

Cut in slabs and serve hot or cold. Serve with fresh fruit or berries!!
Bonita’s Tips:
Letting the pastry go cold after it’s made helps make it more flaky when baked.
Using a ready made jam, jelly or apple sauce, work great in this recipe, but you can use fresh berries or apples tossed in flour and sugar.
