Description
A delicious Triple Berry Pie made with fresh or frozen berries.
Ingredients
Scale
- Pie Crust: Homemade pie crust for a 9” deep-dish pan (2 crusts: one bottom, one top)
- 7 cups fresh or frozen berries (raspberries, blueberries, blackberries; about 2 ⅓ cups each)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (plus extra for sprinkling)
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- 4 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1 large egg white, beaten
Instructions
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, add berries, sugar, and lemon juice.
- Simmer gently for 5–10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Remove about ½ cup of the juice from the pan into a small bowl. Stir in cornstarch until smooth.
- Return the saucepan to a simmer and slowly pour in the cornstarch mixture, stirring carefully to avoid crushing the berries. Cook 2–5 minutes until thickened.
- Remove from heat, stir in butter, and let cool for 15 minutes.
- Pour the cooled filling into an unbaked pie shell.
- Add a top crust or lattice crust. Pinch the edges together and crimp. Brush with beaten egg white and sprinkle lightly with sugar.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Bake for 40–45 minutes.
- Check after 25 minutes; cover with foil if crust is browning too fast.
- Cool on a wire rack for several hours before serving.
- For a lattice crust, roll out top crust into a circle 1–2 inches larger than pie edge, cut strips, and weave them over the filling. Trim excess dough and crimp edges.
Notes
- Frozen mixed berries work perfectly and save prep time.
- Fillings can be prepared up to 3 months ahead and frozen. Bake or assemble pie after thawing overnight in the fridge.
- Baked pie can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before serving.
