Fresh Strawberry & Blueberry Pie
Sounds like a great pie! On my to cook list. Link to the shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 2 pie crusts, fresh, frozen, OR make from a shortcut on this site
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, stems removed and slightly chopped
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup corn starch
- lemon zest, OR orange zest, from 1 orange or lemon
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 205 C. Mix together the berries, sugar, zest, and corns starch in a large bowl.
- Place one pie crust in a pie dish, pour the berry mixture into the dish. For the top crust, you can do this several ways, one complete crust on the top with a few slits cut in it, a lattice top, or use different shape cookie cutters and place the cutouts on the top. Mix together the egg and a tablespoon of water and brush this on the top crust.
- Bake for about 50 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack before cutting to maintain the shape.
Notes
I cannot price this until I purchase the berries. For 8 servings I will say for now this is low cost.
