Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 F.

Step 2

Place cherries and cranberries in a bowl and use a potato masher to smash them.

Step 3

Use a sieve to remove the excess liquid. You won't need it for this recipe, but you can use it in cocktails or in other recipes.

Step 4

In a large bowl, mix the sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and orange zest with the smashed berries.

Step 5

Pour into a 3 quart casserole dish.

Step 6

Gently roll out puff pastry to the approximate size of the casserole dish.

Step 7

Use a pizza cutter to cut out the dough to the exact size of the dish. (If the dish has a lid, use it as a guide; you can invert the dish or lid onto the puff pastry to leave an indentation that you can follow.) Save scraps for other puff pastry projects.

Step 8

Use a lame or continue to use the pizza cutter to gently score designs in the pastry, being careful not to cut all the way though it.

Step 9

Place puff pastry on top of the filling.

Step 10

Use a pastry brush to brush the pastry with egg yolk.

Step 11

Bake for 45 minutes or until evenly browned.

Step 12

Serve warm.
