Homemade blackberry pie is made with easy ingredients like fresh or frozen berries and a pre-made crust!

Ingredients

  • 5 to 6 cups blackberries (fresh or frozen)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (*see note)
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons cornstarch (*see note)
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 double pie crust (homemade or store bought)
  • 1 egg yolk

Directions

  1. 1

    If making homemade pie crust, prepare the crust according to recipe directions.

  2. 2

    Preheat oven to 375°F.

  3. 3

    Roll half of the crust into a 12-inch circle. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the rolled crust.

  4. 4

    In a large bowl, gently toss blackberries, sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon together. Pour into the pie crust. Cut up the butter and dot it over the berries.

  5. 5

    Roll the remaining crust and place over top of the pie. Cut the crusts to the edge of the pie plate and gently fold the edges to seal.

  6. 6

    Whisk the egg yolk with 1 tablespoon of water and brush over the pie.

  7. 7

    Place the pie plate on a large baking pan (lined with parchment paper if you'd like) and bake for 45-55 minutes or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.

    Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Cool at least 4 hours at room temperature.
