🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cups Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 0.5 cups Ice water
• 5 cups Dewberries (fresh or frozen)
• 1 cups Granulated sugar (for filling)

• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for filling)
• 1 Egg (beaten, for egg wash)
• 2 tablespoons Coarse sugar (optional, for topping)

📝 Instructions

11 steps

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

2. Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Divide the dough into two discs, wrap them in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

4. In a large bowl, toss the dewberries with the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Mix gently to combine and set aside.

5. On a floured surface, roll out one disc of chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish, pressing gently into the edges and leaving a slight overhang.

6. Pour the dewberry filling into the prepared crust. Dot the filling with the 2 tablespoons of butter.

7. Roll out the second disc of dough into another 12-inch circle. Place it over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges to seal the pie, and cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

8. Brush the top of the pie with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.

9. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

10. Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before slicing to allow the filling to set.

11. Serve warm or at room temperature with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
