I've been using this blackberry pie recipe for years and have always succeeded with it! Frozen or fresh blackberries can be used. You can add more sugar if you like a sweeter filling. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients
- blackberries: 4 cups (fresh)
- white sugar: 0.75 cup (to taste, divided)
- all-purpose flour: 0.5 cup
- double crust ready-to-use pie crust: 1 piece (9 inch)
- milk: 2 Tbsp

Stages of cooking
-
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
-
Combine 3 1/2 cups of blackberries with 1/2 cup sugar and flour in a large bowl. Spoon mixture into the unbaked pie crust. Spread remaining 1/2 cup berries on top of sweetened berries, and cover with the top crust. Seal and crimp the edges, and cut vents in the top crust for steam to escape.
-
Brush the top crust with milk and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup sugar.
-
Bake pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the temperature of the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and bake until filling is bubbly and crust is golden brown, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on wire rack. Kari
