Himalayan Blackberry Pie
- FILLING INGREDIENTS
- 4 cups blackberries
- 3/4 cup honey (blackberry honey if you can find)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon or lime juice
- 3 tablespoons instant tapioca
- Optional - 1/4 cup super fine sugar, or to your taste
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- CRUST INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
- 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 8-10 tablespoons ice water
- MAKE THE CRUST:rnPut the butter, flour and salt in the food processor, pulse lightly until the mixture resembles wet looking particles (some recipes say pea sized). Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing a couple times after each tablespoon. Keep adding water until the dough just starts to gather into larger clumps. Split the dough in half and place each into a re-sealable plastic bag, pat each into a disk. Let the dough sit in the refrigerator 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Wash and drain the berries.
- In a large bowl; add the berries, honey, lemon or lime juice and tapioca. Taste test before adding optional superfine sugar. Stir the mixture and let sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
- Line a 10 inch pie dish with a rolled out bottom layer of pastry crust.rn rnFill with the blackberry mixture and dot with butter.
- Roll out the remaining pastry crust and cover the top of the pie. Seal and crimp the edges together. Brush with milk or cream. Sprinkle with a little sugar. Cut a few slits, with a sharp knife, to create steam vents.
- Cook for 45 to 55 minutes, until the crust is browned and the filling is bubbling.
- Note: I like to cover a baking sheet with foil and bake the pie on top of that; it seems that whenever I don't, filling spills over....and I don't like the sticky cleanup, but the choice is yours.
