Ingredients
Scale
Filling Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh or frozen berries (strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Crust & Finishing
- 1 double pie crust (store-bought or homemade, about 2 pie dough discs)
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, gently combine 3 cups of fresh or thawed berries, 3/4 cup sugar, 3 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Toss lightly to coat the berries evenly, taking care not to crush them to maintain their shape during baking.
- Roll Out the Crust: On a floured surface, roll out half of the pie dough into a 12-inch circle. Gently place it into your pie dish, pressing it to fit snugly along the edges without stretching.
- Add the Berry Filling: Pour the berry mixture into the crust-lined pie dish, spreading it evenly. The filling will appear generous but will reduce as it bakes, creating luscious fruit layers.
- Top Crust or Lattice: Roll out the remaining dough and either cover the pie fully or create a lattice design with strips of dough. Press edges to seal the pie and pinch or crimp to finish securely.
- Apply Egg Wash and Bake: Brush the crust with the beaten egg wash for a golden, glossy finish. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 45 to 50 minutes until the crust is golden and the filling bubbles.
Notes
- Keep berries cold to help maintain a firm filling during mixing and assembling.
- Do not overmix the filling to prevent the berries from becoming mushy.
- Seal the pie edges well to avoid leaks during baking.
- Place pie on a baking sheet to catch drips and keep your oven clean.
- Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing so the filling sets properly.
