Growing up in Washington state, just north of Seattle, homegrown backyard blackberries were the norm.

And when it came to putting them to use, my Grandma’s blackberry pie was always the star.

This is the pie I grew up on, and it made an appearance year after year at family birthday parties and gatherings.  And let me tell you… after one bite, you’ll know why everyone in my big extended family repeatedly begged for this!

With just a few simple ingredients, this sweet and savory dessert comes together in a snap!

If making this Homemade Fresh Blackberry Pie Recipe is really easy, doesn’t that mean we can enjoy even more pie?  A delicious homemade pie can make almost any day seem a whole lot better.

That’s why I worked hard to make this blackberry pie recipe simple as pie for you to make!  Yep… pun intended! 🙂

What really makes this Homemade Fresh Blackberry Pie Recipe over-the-top amazing is the epic pie filling made with fresh, juicy blackberries!

Then… this yummy pie gets extra dreamy when you serve it with some vanilla ice cream.  YUM!

I love the idea of sharing a hand crafted pie with the people I love.

Talk about the ultimate All-American family dessert!  I promise… it will make everyone’s tummies smile!

What You’ll Need to Make This Blackberry Pie Recipe

Having these handy tools ready to go will make this homemade blackberry pie recipe so much easier.

9″ or 9.5″ Pie Plate

Star Cookie Cutters OR Pastry Stampers – No pie is complete without a cute top crust… and using a cute pastry stamper is an easy way to add some creative details to our pies.

Pizza Wheel – I use my OXO pizza wheel to slice my lattice top crust, and it works like a charm!  It’s sharp, precise, and so easy to work with!

Pastry Brush – This is the OXO Pastry Brush I have and love… it has extra layers of bristles to get the job done without clumping!

Pie Crust Shield – These will help keep your pie crust from burning.  I’ve been using them for years and years, and love them!

How To Make This Blackberry Pie

1. Start by preheating your oven.

2. Carefully place your pie crust into a 9″ or 9.5″ pie plate.

3. Then mix together the blackberries, sugar, and flour.

4. Pour the blackberry mixture into your pie dish.

5. Drizzle lemon juice over the mixture, then add pieces of cold butter.

6. Now it’s time to create your own customized pie crust design for the top crust.

7. After you’ve finished the crust design, brush egg wash on your top crust.

I like to brush the egg wash on with a good quality Pastry Brush.

8. After the egg wash has been added, evenly sprinkle the top of the crust with your Turbinado Sugar.

9. Bake and ENJOY!

Ingredients 

1x2x3x

• ▢ 6 cups Fresh Blackberries, rinsed - approx. four 6 oz. containers - (frozen blackberries thawed and drained can be substituted)
• ▢ 2 teaspoons Fresh-Squeezed Lemon Juice
• ▢ 1 cup Granulated (White) Sugar
• ▢ ½ cup All-Purpose Flour
• ▢ 1 Egg, beaten (for interior of bottom crust)
• ▢ 1 tablespoon Cold Butter, cut into tiny pieces.
• ▢ Two 9″ Pie Crusts, (Homemade or Pillsbury Refrigerated Crusts)
• ▢ Egg Wash for top crust: 1 Large Egg, beaten well + 1 tablespoon Milk + a pinch of Salt
• ▢ Pie Crust Topping: 2 teaspoons Turbinado Sugar , (Sugar in the Raw)

Cook ModePrevent your screen from going dark

Instructions 

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Carefully place one pie crust in 9″ pie dish. Trim and fold edges over, and crimp, pinch, or flute around the entire edge.
• Brush inside of bottom crust with beaten egg… this will prevent it from becoming soggy while baking.
• In large bowl, stir together Blackberries, Granulated Sugar, All-Purpose Flour until well combined and you no longer see any white coating.
• Transfer blackberry mixture into pie crust in dish, leaving any excess liquid in the bowl.
• Drizzle lemon juice over top of the berry mixture.
• Then dot with pieces of cold butter
• Now… it’s time to work on your lattice! Make sure to leave adequate holes or gaps for venting. I like to roll dough out on a cutting board and slice a variety of sizes of strips, using my pizza cutter. Then you can weave in a lattice pattern. You can even take 3 long and narrow slices of pie crust dough and braid it to add some additional pretty texture. Or cut out little shapes with pastry stampers to add some fun designs to the crust! The options are endless!
• Once you’ve laid out your top crust, it’s time for the egg wash. Beat 1 Large Egg well, then stir in 1 tbsp. Milk + a pinch of salt. Dip your pastry brush in the egg mixture, and brush over the entire top and outer edges of your pie crust.
• Once you’ve finished your Egg Wash, evenly sprinkle the top of the crust with Turbinado Sugar.
• Place pie on cookie sheet {it will catch any potential spills that bubble ever}
• Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes, add your Pie Crust Shield to keep the edges from burning, adjust temperature to 375 degrees, and bake for 45 – 50 more minutes, or until done and top crust is golden brown.
• Transfer to wire rack and cool for 3+ hours prior to serving, allowing pie filling to solidify.
• Slice and serve with big scoops of vanilla ice cream and whip cream on top. ENJOY!
