Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a medium mixing bowl combine cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Beat until light and fluffy. Set aside.
- Remove thawed phyllo from package and unroll. Keep stack covered with a damp towel at all times to prevent drying out and tearing. Separate one sheet of phyllo from stack, brush lightly with melted butter or margarine, and place sheet in a 9-inch pie pan. Let edges of dough hang over sides of pan. Continue this process with 4 more sheets of phyllo dough. Spread cream cheese mixture evenly into pan.
- Spread fruit filling over cream cheese layer. Fold overhanging phyllo dough over fruit layer. Brush another sheet of phyllo with melted butter or margarine and lay over top of pie. Continue this process with remaining 4 sheets of phyllo.
- Tuck edges of top phyllo sheets inside pie between pan and filling, sealing well. Cut small slits in top layers of dough to allow steam to escape.
- Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 55 minutes, ensuring that phyllo doesn't get too brown, just golden. Cool completely before serving. Refrigerate leftovers, if any ...

FRUIT PIE CRUMB TOPPING
My mother always sprinkled on this wonderful crumb topping to dress up her two-crust fruit pies. The crumble topping not only looks pretty, it provides a crisp contrast to the soft fruit filling. I used it to top pies for my daughter's wedding reception.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and set aside to soften for 5 minutes.
- Combine 2/3 cup sugar, the rehydrated gelatin, and the mashed fruit in a saucepan. Cook to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Immediately remove the pan from the heat and set the bottom of the pan in cold water; cool just until the mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon.
- Combine the egg whites, cream of tartar, and 1/3 cup sugar in a heat-proof mixing bowl. Whisk the mixture slightly, just to break up the egg whites. Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water on the stove. Heat the mixture, whisking constantly, until the egg white mixture is hot to the touch and has reached 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) on an instant-read thermometer. Immediately remove the bowl from the heat and whip with an electric mixer until the meringue forms medium-stiff glossy peaks.
- Use a whisk or spatula to fold the fruit mixture into the meringue. Meanwhile, whip the cream in a cold bowl until medium-stiff peaks form.
- The filling mixture should be no warmer than room temperature when you add the whipped cream. Add one third of the whipped cream into the filling mixture, mixing gently until combined. Fold in the remaining whipped cream and pile the filling into the cooled baked pie shell. Chill several hours until set.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out 1 piece of dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate; chill until ready to use.
- Make the filling: Peel and chop the apples. Pulse the apples, raisins, and dried plums, figs and cherries in a food processor until chunky.

Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge with your fingers. Brush the lattice crust with the beaten egg.

Tips for Baking Fruit Pies
- Use a variety of fruits. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Pie recipes often use about 6 cups sliced fruit.
- Choose fruits that are in season. This will ensure that they are at their peak flavor.
- Prepare your fruit properly. This may include peeling, slicing, or pitting the fruit. In general, pieces should be about 1/2 inch thick.
- Use a good quality pie crust. This will make a big difference in the overall quality of your pie.
- Don't overfill your pie crust. This will prevent the pie from bubbling over and making a mess.
- Bake your pie at the right temperature. This will vary depending on the type of fruit pie you are making. Using a pie shield may be a good idea during the baking process.
- Let your pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the crust to become flaky.
Conclusion
Fruit pies are a classic dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little practice, you can make a delicious fruit pie that will impress your family and friends. Use these tips to ensure you're making the best fruit pies possible.
