Really, I just made this up a few days ago, and it resulted in one of the most amazing pies I've ever eaten. I usually am very critical and not completely happy with recipes I come up with on my own, but this one is truly a sensation! Ingredients:
2 unbaked pie crusts (i make my own, store-bought works great too) |
4 cups strawberries, washed and sliced |
2 cups raspberries, rinsed |
1 cup blackberry, rinsed |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
1/4 cup cornstarch |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 orange, zest of |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400. Combine the berries with a 1/4 cup of sugar and let stand over a sieve for a half hour to drain some of the liquid. Combine the rest of the ingredients minus the crust. Using a 9 inch pie plate, arrange your crust and spoon the filling inches Place the second crust over and crimp edges. Make sure to cut a vent into the dough or use a pie bird. You can also do a lattice top pie which is just gorgeous and is what I did.
2. You can brush the top of the pie with a mix of one egg yolk and a teaspoon of water (which makes for a lovely golden brown crust).
3. Bake for 20 minutes at 400 and then bake at 350 for another 40-50 minutes. Remove when crust is golden brown.
