Fresh Blackberry Pie
This Blackberry Pie is a dessert your family will love. Perfect on a hot summer day topped with ice cream. Made with two pie crusts and so good!
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 9 inch pie shells, unbaked (You can make them yourself or use bought. I used Pillsbury frozen pie shells.)
- 4 1/2 cups fresh blackberries
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
- Milk and 1 teaspoon brown sugar for top of crust Optional
Instructions
- Place bottom crust in your pie place. (Tip: I spray my pie plate with cooking spray before I add the crust. I think this makes the pie come out of the pan easier). Prick bottom crust with fork. Mix all ingredients except butter, milk and brown sugar in a large bowl with a spoon. Pour into pie shell. Cut butter in pieces on top of filling.
- Place second pie shell on top and cut slits for steam to escape. Very lightly brush just a tiny bit of milk on top of the shell and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar. Bake in preheated 425 degree oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees and cook 20-25 more minutes until pie is brown on top. Let cool before cutting.
Notes
I think you could use frozen blackberries in this recipe, too.
