Looks delicious, doesn’t it? Now, let’s roll up our sleeves and dive into this sumptuous pie-making journey!
Ingredients
Here’s what you’re going to need to channel your inner pie master:
- 2 cups fresh blackberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 package refrigerated pie crusts (or you can make your own if feeling adventurous!)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
Time to get cooking! Follow these simple steps and you’ll have a pie that’ll knock the socks off anyone who dares step into your kitchen:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). It’s about to get hot in here!
- Unroll one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate. Make sure it’s snug, no one likes a loose pie!
- In a bowl, mix the blackberries with sugar, flour, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Let them mingle for about 10 minutes so they can really get to know each other.
- Pour this juicy mixture into the pie crust, spreading it evenly. Dot it with the butter. Um, heaven!
- Cover with the second pie crust, crimp the edges, and make several slits for steam to escape. Nobody wants a pie explosion!
- Brush the top with beaten egg for that golden touch that makes it Instagram-worthy.
- Bake for about 45 minutes or until the crust is beautifully brown and the juices bubble happily.
- Let it cool for a bit (if you can resist) before slicing into this beauty!
And voilà! You’ve created a tantalizing blackberry pie that’ll make you the star of the kitchen. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and enjoy every bite like it’s your last! Remember to share, or maybe not—no judgment here!
