Fresh
Blackberry Pie Recipe
Makes
1, 9-inch double-crust pie

Blackberries are fresh
for such a short time each year, from May through September, with the peak
season occurring in June and July. For best flavor, buy berries when they
are in season where you live. The closer the berries are to the market, the
fresher they should be. So indulge and enjoy!! |
INGREDIENTS:
4 cups fresh blackberries
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie ( see basic recipe above)
2 tablespoons milk
1/4 cup white sugar
DIRECTIONS:
1. Combine 3 1/2 cups berries with the sugar and flour.
Spoon the mixture into an unbaked pie shell. Spread the remaining 1/2
cup berries on top of the sweetened berries, and cover with the top
crust. Seal and crimp the edges. Brush the top crust with milk, and
sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar.
2. Bake at 425 degree F (220 degrees C) for 15 minutes. Reduce the
temperature of the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and bake for
an additional 20 to 25 minutes.
