Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 6 tablespoons Ice water
- 4 Apples (peeled, cored, and sliced thin)
- 1.5 cups Blackberries
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 Egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon Milk (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon Sugar (for topping)
Instructions
Begin by preparing the pie crust. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the ice water a tablespoon at a time until the dough starts to come together. Divide the dough into two discs, wrap them in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, blackberries, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss until the fruit is evenly coated.
On a floured surface, roll out one of the chilled dough discs into a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently into the edges.
Pour the apple-blackberry mixture into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Roll out the second dough disc and place it over the filling. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal. If desired, cut slits or decorative shapes in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to make the egg wash. Brush the top crust with the egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, and bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set.
Slice and serve your delicious apple blackberry pie on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
