In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough comes together without being sticky.
Divide the dough into two discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, combine the apples, blueberries, and strawberries. Toss with the lemon juice.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sprinkle this mixture over the fruit and toss until evenly coated.
On a floured surface, roll out one disc of dough to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Gently transfer the dough to the pan, pressing it into the edges and leaving a slight overhang.
Pour the fruit filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Roll out the second dough disc and place it over the pie. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal.
Cut a few small slits into the top crust to allow steam to escape. Alternatively, create a lattice top by cutting the dough into strips and weaving them over the filling.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the milk to make an egg wash. Brush this over the top crust.
Sprinkle coarse sugar over the top, if desired.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before slicing to let the filling set. Serve warm or at room temperature.
