Ingredients
Scale
- 1 recipe double-crust pie pastry
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blackberries
- 1 cup fresh or frozen sliced strawberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Prepare your favorite double-crust pie pastry. Divide dough in half, roll out one half and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim edges, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang.
- In a large bowl, gently combine blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Pour the sugar mixture over the berries and toss gently to coat evenly.
- Spoon the berry filling into the prepared pie crust. Dot the top of the filling with small pieces of butter.
- Roll out the remaining pie pastry. Place it over the berry filling. Trim and crimp the edges to seal. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Brush the top crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with additional granulated sugar.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Bake for 15 minutes at 400°F (200°C). Reduce oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and continue baking for 35-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- If the crust begins to brown too quickly, loosely cover the edges with aluminum foil.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack for at least 2-3 hours before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use a combination of fresh and frozen berries.
- Adjust sugar quantity based on the sweetness of your berries.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
- Leftovers can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerated for up to 4 days.
