BLACKBERRY AND BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Cut shortening into 2 cups flour and salt until the shortening is the size of small peas. Sprinkle in water 1 tablespoon at a time until flour is moistened. Gather into a ball, wrap with plastic, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes. Divide the dough in half and roll out half on a lightly floured board. Line a 9-inch pie dish with the pastry. Roll out the top crust and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Mix sugar, 1/3 cup flour, and cinnamon. Stir in berries to coat. Pour the filling into the pastry-lined pan. Sprinkle with lemon juice and dot with butter. Cover with top crust; cut slits in the top to vent the steam. Seal the crust and flute the edges.
• Cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent over-browning. Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbling, about 45 minutes. Remove foil during the last 12 minutes of baking.

BLUEBERRY BLACKBERRY PIE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and sugar.
• Add the butter pieces and toss in the flour until the butter is coated in flour.
• With a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture. Continue to cut the butter into the flour until most pieces are about pea-sized. (Do not allow the butter pieces to get smaller than pea-size. Larger pieces are better.)
• Combine the water, ice, and vinegar in a bowl.
• Add 1 to 2 tbs of the liquid at a time. Gently combine it with the flour mixture. Continue to add the liquid until a ball forms.
• Divide the dough in half.
• Flatten each piece of dough into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• Combine the apple, blackberries, blueberries, lemon juice, lemon zest, sugars, cornstarch, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and salt.
• To Assemble the Pie: Roll out one piece of dough until it just fits the bottom of a 9-inch glass pie plate.
• Refrigerate the dough for about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place a foil lined sheet pan in the oven as it preheats.
• Pour the filling into the chilled pie shell.
• Place the pie back into the freezer while rolling out the top pastry.
• Roll out the second piece of dough so it fits the cover of the pie.
• Cover the filling with the second piece of pastry.
• Cut slits into the pie for venting. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake on the pre-heated baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes.

• Remove from oven and allow it to cool for 2 to 3 hours to allow the pie filling to thicken.

BLACKBERRY BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll one disk of pie crust out into a rough 13-inch circle. Transfer to a 9 or 10-inch pie dish. Roll the second disk or pie crust out and have it ready.
• In a large bowl, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and lemon zest. Add the blueberries and blackberries and gently mix until they are coated with the sugar mixture.
• Dump berry mixture into crust-lined pie dish. Place the other pie crust on top, or form a lattice, and press the bottom and top crusts together to seal. Tuck the ends into the pie dish and crimp crust edges as desired. With a sharp knife, cut slits into the top of the pie for vents (if making a lattice pie, skip this step).
• Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
• Place pie on the prepared sheet pan and bake until pie crust is golden and juices are visibly bubbling through the vents or lattice, about 1 hour. If top crust browns too quickly, cover with foil.
• Let cool completely before serving, for best results. If desired, you can reheat the pie in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.

BLUEBERRY AND BLACKBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Place one portion of pie crust in pie pan.
• Place blackberries and blueberries in large bowl.
• Add sugar, cinnamon and flour and mix.
• Pour into pie crust and dot with butter.
• Add remaining pie crust to top (I sometimes lattice this.).
• Cook at 350 degrees 45 minutes until brown and bubbling.
• Top with vanilla ice cream.

FRESH BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Mix the blueberries, the 1/2 cup of sugar, the flour, lemon zest, lemon juice, and cassis in a large bowl. Carefully ease one pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate, making sure not to stretch the dough at all, or it will shrink as the pie bakes. With a sharp knife, cut the excess dough off at the edge of the pie plate. Spoon the blueberry mixture into the pie shell, scraping the bowl with a rubber spatula to be sure you have all the juices.
• Brush the edge of the crust with the egg wash. Carefully lay the second crust on top, again easing -- not stretching -- it onto the pie. Cut the excess dough off at the edge of the pie plate. Press the two edges together with a dinner fork. Brush the top crust with the eggs wash, cut three slits for steam to escape, and sprinkle with sugar.
• Place the pie on the prepared sheet pan and bake in the middle of the oven for 45 to 50 minutes, until the filling is very bubbly and the crust is nicely browned. Allow to cool and serve warm or at room temperature.
• Cut the butter in 1/2-inch dice and return it to the refrigerator while you prepare the flour mixture. Place the flour, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and shortening. Pulse 8 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of peas. With the machine running, pour the ice water down the feed tube and pulse the machine until the dough begins to form a ball. Dump out onto a floured board and roll into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Cut the dough in half. Roll each piece on a well-floured board into a circle at least 1 inch larger than the pie pan, rolling from the center to the edge, turning and flouring the dough so it doesnt stick to the board. (You should see bits of butter in the dough.) Fold the dough in half, ease it into the pie pan without stretching at all, and unfold to fit the pan. With a small sharp paring knife, cut the dough 1 inch larger around than the pan. Fold the edge under and crimp the edge with either your fingers or the tines of a fork.

BLACKBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Toss together the berries, granulated sugar, vanilla and lemon zest and juice in a large bowl. Let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, unroll one pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie plate. Roll out the other crust on a floured cutting board. Using a 2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut the entire crust into rounds, rerolling until all the dough is used (about 28 rounds).
• Sprinkle the cornstarch over the berry mixture and toss to combine. Pour the berry mixture into the crust and spread into an even layer. Dot the top with the butter pieces. Brush the border of the dough lightly with the egg wash. Place the rounds around the border of the pie plate, overlapping them slightly and using the egg wash as an adhesive when necessary. There will be empty space in the center. Crimp the edge of the pie. Brush the entire crust with the egg wash and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.
• Put the pie plate on a baking sheet and bake until the center is set and the crust is golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes. Put on a wire rack to cool completely. Serve at room temperature.

BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• On a lightly floured piece of parchment paper, roll out one disk of dough to a 12-inch round. With a dry pastry brush, sweep off excess flour; fit dough into a 9-inch glass pie plate, pressing it into edges. Trim dough to a 1/2-inch overhang all around. Fold edge of dough over or under, and crimp as desired. Roll out remaining dough in the same manner; transfer dough (on parchment) to a baking sheet. Chill pie shell and dough until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Place blueberries in a large bowl; with your hands, crush about 1/2 cup of berries, letting them fall into the bowl as you work. Add sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice; stir to combine. Spoon mixture into chilled pie shell, mounding berries slightly in the center. Dot with butter. Remove dough from refrigerator, and place over blueberry filling. Tuck edge of top dough between edge of bottom dough and rim of pan. Using your fingers, gently press both layers of dough along the edge to seal, and crimp as desired.
• Using a paring knife, cut several vents in top of dough to allow steam to escape. In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk and cream. Brush surface with egg wash, being careful not to let it pool. Freeze or refrigerate pie until firm, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees, with rack in lower third.
• Place pie on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until crust begins to turn golden, about 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue baking, rotating sheet halfway through, until crust is deep golden brown and juices are bubbling and have thickened, 40 to 50 minutes more. Transfer pie to a wire rack to cool completely. The pie is best eaten the day it is baked, but it can be kept at room temperature, loosely covered with plastic wrap, for up to 2 days.
