Step 1: Glazed, beat egg white with water, brush over pastry before baking
Step 2: Shiny, using a soft brush, brush on just enough cream to cover before baking
Step 3: Sugary, bush with milk, sprinkle with sugar before baking.
Step 4: Rich brown, brush top with melted butter before baking.
Step 5: And my favorite - lightly flick water over crust with fingertips, carefully tip to spread the water - sprinkle with sugar before baking. All so simple yet make for that added touch. Baking time for the pies - go with the suggested baking time your recipe calls for
