  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line two small cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • Unroll pie crust dough rounds separately onto the prepared cookie sheets.
  • Mix together 1/4 cup sugar and flour in a bowl. Sprinkle 1/2 mixture on each dough round, leaving a 1-inch border.
  • Divide and arrange raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries evenly on top of flour-sugar mixture on each dough round. Squeeze juice from 1/2 lemon over each berry mixture.
