Cuisine: Amish
Serves: 1 pie
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made pie crust
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup raspberries
- 1 cup blackberries
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This temperature is perfect for baking the pie crust to a golden brown while allowing the berries to cook perfectly.
- Take the pre-made pie crust out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. This will make it easier to work with.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. Gently toss the berries together to mix them evenly.
- In a separate small bowl, mix the sugar and cornstarch together until well combined. This mixture will help thicken the juices released by the berries as they bake.
- Add the sugar and cornstarch mixture to the bowl of berries, along with the lemon juice. Gently fold the ingredients together, being careful not to crush the berries, until they are evenly coated.
- Carefully pour the berry mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly. Make sure to leave some space at the top of the crust to allow for bubbling during baking.
- If desired, you can sprinkle a little extra sugar on top of the filling for added sweetness and a nice finish.
- Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips that may occur while baking. This will help keep your oven clean.
- Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C), then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 35 minutes. The pie is done when the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
- Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes. This cooling time allows the filling to set up a bit more.
- Serve the pie warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a delightful treat.
Tips
- • Choose fresh, ripe berries for the most intense flavor - the key to an extraordinary pie is using the best ingredients! • Don't overmix the berry filling - gentle folding preserves the berries' delicate texture • Use a baking sheet under the pie to catch any potential drips and prevent oven mess • Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes to allow the filling to set properly • For an extra touch of elegance, brush the pie crust edge with an egg wash for a beautiful golden shine • Serve with vanilla ice cream or fresh whipped cream to elevate this already incredible dessert • Store any leftovers (if there are any!) in the refrigerator and enjoy within 2-3 days
