Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 9 inch pie shells, unbaked (You can make them yourself or use bought. I used Pillsbury frozen pie shells.)
  • 4 1/2 cups fresh blackberries
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • Milk and 1 teaspoon brown sugar for top of crust (Optional)

Instruction

  • Place bottom crust in your pie place. (Tip: I spray my pie plate with cooking spray before I add the crust. I think this makes the pie come out of the pan easier). Prick bottom crust with fork. Mix all ingredients except butter, milk and brown sugar in a large bowl with a spoon. Pour into pie shell. Cut butter in pieces on top of filling.
  • Place second pie shell on top and cut slits for steam to escape. Very lightly brush just a tiny bit of milk on top of the shell and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar. Bake in preheated 425 degree oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees and cook 20-25 more minutes until pie is brown on top. Let cool before cutting.
