method

1. Make pastry dough: combine whole wheat pastry flour, salt, and coconut sugar. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add ice water a tablespoon at a time until dough just comes together. Form into a disk, wrap, and chill 30 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
3. Make filling: toss berries with coconut sugar, whole wheat pastry flour, cornstarch, and vanilla in a bowl.
4. Roll out chilled dough on parchment paper to a 12-inch circle, about ¼ inch thick.
5. Spread berry filling on the dough, leaving a 1½-inch border.
6. Fold edges up and over the berries, pleating as you go.
7. Whisk egg yolk with water and brush over the pastry edges.
8. Bake 35-40 minutes until crust is golden brown and filling bubbles at the edges.
9. Cool 15 minutes before serving.
