Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 cups Saskatoon berries
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon extra white sugar
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons corn starch
  • 14 1/2 ounces pastry (pie crust for one 9 inch pie)
  • 1 egg for brushing the top

Instruction

  • Gently toss together your Saskatoons, sugar and cornstarch/crushed Tapioca, until the berries are coated.
  • Place your bottom crust into the pie plate.
  • Pour your berries into the pie plate. 
  • Add butter on top if desired.
  • Cover with your crust. 
  • Brush your pie crust with the egg then sprinkle the sugar on top. 
  • Pinch the seams together and mark your pie vents as you like. 
  • Using the lowest rack of your oven, bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees, then lower the temperature to 350 degrees and bake for about 50-55 minutes more. 
  • When your pie edges start to become too brown - and they always will- cover the edges with tinfoil or use a pie crust cover. I have one and they are amazing! 
  • Continue baking until you see the pie filling bubbling and your pie is beautifully browned all over the top. 
  • Remove from the oven and cool on a baking rack.
