OLD FASHIONED BLACKBERRY PIE
Source of Recipe
COOKS
Pastry for double crust pie
6 c. fresh or partially thawed frozen blackberries
2 tsp. lemon juice
1 to 1 1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. all purpose flour ( I will use at least 1 cup
as our berries are so juicy)
2 tbsp. butter
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp. water
Line a 9 inch pie plate with pastry as directed for double crust pie. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In large bowl combine blackberries and lemon juice; toss. In small bowl combine sugar and flour; sprinkle over blackberries and toss until well coated. Spoon into pastry-lined pie plate. Dot with butter. Top with remaining pastry.
In small bowl combine egg yolk and water. Brush evenly over top of pie. Bake about 1 hour or until juice bubbles through slits nearest the center. If edge gets too brown, cover with foil. Cool on wire rack.
