Pear And Raspberry Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3/4 cup flour
    1/2 cup self-rising flour
    1/4 cup powdered sugar
    1/2 cup part skim ricotta cheese
    1 None egg white
    3 medium ripe pears, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
    1 2/3 cups raspberries
    1/4 cup ground almonds
    2 tsp milk
    1 tsp granulated sugar
Preparation
    Process flours and powdered sugar until well blended. Add ricotta; process for 30 seconds to just combine. Add egg white and 1 tbsp iced water. Process, using pulse, for 15 seconds or until mixture is evenly moistened and still crumbly, adding 1-2 tsp additional water if necessary.
    Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until it just comes together. Form into a disc and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 20 mins.
    Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. Combine pears and raspberries in a large bowl. Roll pastry between sheets of parchment paper to a 12-inch round. Peel off top sheet of paper. Transfer pastry, on remaining paper, to a baking sheet. Sprinkle pastry with almonds, leaving a 2-inch border.
    Pile pear mixture on almonds. Fold in edge of pastry to partially cover pear mixture, pleating and pinching pastry edge. Brush pastry with milk; sprinkle with sugar.
    Bake for 35 mins or until golden brown.
