Homegrown Blackberry Pie

Share with your friends!

Blackberry pie is an annual tradition when our bushes start producing ripe
fruit. Flaky crust hides that amazing filling that is the perfect combination
of sweet fruit with just a hint of lemon.   

     This blackberry pie is loaded with bright berry
flavor.  Make it with plump fresh berries or frozen berries, whichever you
have. Then make sure to have a scoop of vanilla ice cream ready. The combination
is unbelievably good!

     When we moved into our house a few years ago, we knew we
were getting a couple of bonuses to go along with the house.  The first
was a strawberry patch and the second was a stand of thornless blackberries.
 We moved in September though, so we had no idea just how fruitful they
would be.

       The first year we had soooo many strawberries.
 We ate our fill and had plenty for the freezer.

      The second year we had a little munchkin in the spring
time that was eating the strawberries as quickly as we could pick them.
 Now we tend to use them up as we go, but occasionally have a few extra
for the freezer.  They are great for winter time smoothies, purees and
sauces.

    The biggest surprise was the blackberries. There were a million
of them and they are HUGE!

    This year I made a
blackberry shortcake cake, a
blackberry ice cream
and a
blackberry crisp with them while they were fresh.  Little Dude also ate a few
each day and we shared some with our neighbor kid.

Making Homegrown Blackberry Piehttps://youtu.be/eTwjdaWNGG8Our blackberry bushes create a bumper crop. We love to make a few treats with them during the summer while they are fresh, but we freeze the rest to bake with during the winter. This pie is an annual treat and we love it every year!https://cookingwithcarlee.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Homegrown2Bblackberry2Bpie2Bslice2Ba2Bla2Bmode.jpg2016-01-30
