  2. In a mixing bowl, combine chopped strawberries, blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and lemon zest.
  3. Roll out the premade pie crust and cut into 4.5-inch circles, about six in total.
  4. Spoon 1/4 cup of the berry mixture into the center of each circle, leaving about an inch of edge.
  5. Fold the edges of the pie crust over the filling, overlapping where necessary and pressing gently to seal.
  6. Brush the exposed crust with an egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  7. Bake the galettes for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and filling bubbles slightly.
  8. Allow to cool slightly before serving, best enjoyed warm.

Notes
