1 pint blueberries

2-3 tablespoons maple syrup

1 tsp lemon juice

For crust:

Whisk salt and flour together

Cut butter into flour with a pastry knife until pieces are pea sized

Sprinkle in water, 1 tbsp at at time until mixture forms as ball.

Using a large water glass, or round cookie cutter, cut 6" circles.

Place a tablespoon or so of blueberry mix on one side of each circle.

Fold over, and press edges together with a fork. Brush tops with beaten egg, and sprinkle with sugar.
