Elderberry Pie Recipes

ELDERBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Prepare the pie crust by mixing flour and salt (with a tbsp of sugar if desired) and then cutting the butter into the flour mixture until crumbly. Add water and bring the mixture together into a cohesive mass. Divide into two pieces, wrap and refrigerate.
• Clean and stem the elderberries.
• Place the sugar, cornstarch and water in a saucepan large enough to hold all the filling. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring to dissolve.
• Add elderberries and lemon juice and cook another 2-3 minutes until heated through. Set aside to cool slightly while you prepare the crust.
• Remove one half of the crust from the refrigerator, roll it out and use it to line a pie pan.
• Fill the crust with the elderberry pie filling, and then top with the second half of the crust (as a lattice top or solid top pie).
• Seal the edges, and optionally, pain the top with milk or egg white for a golden crust. A sprinkle of sugar on top is also a nice decorative touch.
• Bake at 425 for 30 minutes and then reduce the oven temperature to 350 for an additional 20 to 30 minutes until the crust is browned and filling bubbly.
• Allow the pie to cool completely before cutting.
