Homemade Blackberry Pie Recipe
Sweet, luscious homemade blackberry pie recipe is the perfect finish to a country meal.
Ingredients
- 1 16 oz bag frozen blackberries or 3 cups
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- juice from 1/2 lemon about 2 Tablespoons
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 Tablespoons clear jell Check recipe notes for substitute
- 2 pie crust
Instructions
- Put berries in large saucepan, add water. Bring to a simmer, add sugar, butter, and lemon juice. Simmer till sugar is dissolved, and butter is melted, stirring occasionally.
- Mix Clear Jell and 1/4 cup water in a cup. Stir with spoon till dissolved.
- Taste the blackberry mix to see if it tastes ok. Add more sugar or lemon juice, if needed.
- Stir in the clear jell and bring to a boil. Caution! At this point it will bubble and splash, and the filling is quite hot!
- Once it is at a boil and the filling is no longer cloudy, remove from heat and let cool. Fill one pie crust and top with second crust. Pinch edges closed, and bake at 350* for 1 hour.
Notes
You may use cornstarch in place of Clear gel, but you will need more. About 3 1/2 Tablespoons of cornstarch. If you use cornstarch, you will need to boil the filling after you add the cornstarch, until it is thick. It will continue thickening as it cools, but not much.
To make it dairy-free, just omit the butter. It will still taste good! Also use a dairy-free pastry crust.
