Method
Prepare the Pastry Dough
Mix the Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Form the Dough
Add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
Chill the Dough
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Prepare the Filling
Prepare the Fruit
If using fresh fruit, wash, peel (if necessary), and chop it into small pieces.
Add Cream Cheese (if using)
If using cream cheese, soften it and mix it into the fruit mixture until well combined.
Assemble and Bake
Roll Out Dough
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled pastry dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick.
Fill the Pastry
Cut out circles or squares from the dough, place a spoonful of filling in the center, and fold over to seal. Crimp the edges with a fork.
Bake
Place pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
