Ingredients
8 Servings
- 300 grams all-purpose flour
- 900 grams blackberries
- 30 grams cornstarch
- 1 egg
- 60 milliliters ice water
- 15 milliliters lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 50 grams sugar
- 100 grams sugar
- 227 grams unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, and sugar. Add the butter and blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 3
Slowly add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough begins to form. Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Step 4
In another bowl, combine blackberries, lemon juice, cornstarch, and sugar. Toss gently to mix.
Step 5
Roll out one disc of dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Place the dough in the dish and trim the edges.
Step 6
Pour the blackberry mixture into the dough-lined pie dish.
Step 7
Roll out the second disc of dough and place it over the filling. Trim, seal, and crimp the edges. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Step 8
Brush the top crust with the beaten egg.
Step 9
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Step 10
Let the pie cool on a wire rack before serving.
