Ingredients

Units Scale

For the crust:

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 68 tablespoons ice water

For the filling:

  • 5 cups fresh blackberries
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter, for dotting

Instructions

  1. Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse the flour, butter, salt, and sugar until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Slowly add the ice water until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape into disks, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 1 hour.
  2. Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, gently toss together the blackberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, lemon zest, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  3. Assemble the pie: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out one disk of dough and place it in a pie dish. Pour the blackberry filling into the crust. Dot the filling with butter. Roll out the second disk of dough, place it over the filling, and crimp the edges to seal. Cut slits in the top crust for steam to escape.
  4. Bake the pie: Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust is browning too quickly, tent the pie with foil.
  5. Cool and serve: Allow the pie to cool before slicing and serving. Enjoy with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Notes

  • You can use frozen blackberries if fresh ones are not available.
  • Feel free to adjust the sugar level in the filling based on the sweetness of the berries.
  • Serve the pie warm or at room temperature for the best flavor.
