Right before Thanksgiving I was browsing Pinterest (you can follow me
here) and happened upon this pin:
30 best pie recipes.
If you remember,
last New Year's I made a resolution of sorts to become a pie maker. I've always loved pie- and probably loved the thought of being really good at making them even more. But until this year, I had literally never even helped make one.
I got my mom's ama-zing pie crust recipe and went to town. Ok, kind of. I've only made 7 this whole year. But that's more than ever before!
Anyway, back to the 30 best pie recipes. I decided I was going to choose one of those recipes and make it for Thanksgiving, along with your traditional pumpkin. And boy let me tell you...
THIS recipe {Easy Blackberry Pie} was SO delicious I think I could have eaten the whole pie myself! The original recipe came from a blog:
Remodelaholic. And I followed it exactly.

Blackberry Pie
Makes one 9″
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare your pie crust, line one 9″ pie
pan, and roll out enough dough for a top. (or purchase a 2 pie crust
package freezer package)
In a bowl combine:
3/4 – 1 cup sugar
3 T flour
dash salt
1 – 1lb bag frozen blackberries (or blue…)
1-2 tsp lemon juice
Fold together, gently. The flour and sugar won’t necessarily melt, it doesn’t matter. Pour into the prepared pie shell.
Cut 2 Tbsp of butter into small squares and distribute over the top
of the berries. Cover with a top crust, either a solid piece with a few
slits or lattice, which ever you prefer. And bake for 40-45 minutes.
Serve hot or cold! Both are great!
Honestly. You need to make this. Even if you don't think you like blackberries. Just do it. Cuz I said so.
love & watering mouth,
