Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 cups blackberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 package pie crust dough (for a double crust)
- 1 tablespoon milk (optional, for brushing)
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar (optional, for sprinkling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out half of the pie crust dough and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess dough around the edges and set it aside.
In a large bowl, combine the blackberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, flour, and lemon juice. Mix gently until the blackberries are evenly coated.
Transfer the blackberry mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Dot the blackberry filling with small pieces of the unsalted butter.
Roll out the second half of the pie crust dough and place it over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges as desired, ensuring a tight seal. You can create a lattice design if preferred.
Cut a few small slits or poke holes in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
If desired, brush the top crust with milk for a golden finish and sprinkle with granulated sugar for extra sweetness.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, then bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before serving to let the filling set.
Slice and serve plain or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
