Blackberry Pie

Crust

  • 1 c. flour
  • ½ c. butter
  • 1/6 c. ice water

Put flour and butter in Cuisinart or mixer and mix until crumbly. Once butter is all in little crumbly pieces, make ice water by putting ice in water and waiting for it to get very cold. Add water to dough and mix until solid.

Note: this makes enough crust for the bottom layer of a pie, ie. a pie without a top crust. If you want to make a pie with a layer on top, double the amounts in this recipe.

Pie

  • blackberries
  • 1 c. sugar
  • sprinkle of flour

Sprinkle flour on a clean surface and onto the rolling pin and roll out dough, adding more flour if the dough is sticking to the rolling pin or surface you’re rolling on.

Fill pie dish with blackberries. If you don’t have enough blackberries add a layer of peeled sliced apples at the bottom.

Sprinkle 1 c. sugar and a little flour on top. Place rolled out pie crust on top. Poke top of crust with a fork a few times.

Bake at 350 for ¾ of an hour.

I don’t think it’s a good idea to make just the bottom layer. The bottom layer is always soggy, which is why I always omit it–especially for blackberry pie which is so juicy. But a top layer works well, and cuts the calories in half–for anyone who’s counting!
