lattice top
Pie's woven lid
A lattice top is a crisscross pattern of pastry strips woven over a pie filling, allowing the filling to show through the gaps: She finished the cherry pie with a lattice top.
The strips are typically laid in alternating over-under fashion, creating a decorative woven effect.
Lattice tops appear most often on fruit pies.
