Ingredients
- 5 to 6 cups blackberries fresh or frozen
- ½ cup granulated sugar *see note
- 3 to 4 tablespoons cornstarch *see note
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 double pie crust homemade or store bought
- 1 egg yolk
Instructions
- If making homemade pie crust, prepare the crust according to recipe directions.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Roll half of the crust into a 12-inch circle. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the rolled crust.
- In a large bowl, gently toss blackberries, sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon together. Pour into the pie crust. Cut up the butter and dot it over the berries.
- Roll the remaining crust and place over top of the pie. Cut the crusts to the edge of the pie plate and gently fold the edges to seal.
- Whisk the egg yolk with 1 tablespoon of water and brush over the pie.
- Place the pie plate on a large baking pan (lined with parchment paper if you'd like) and bake for 45-55 minutes or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Cool at least 4 hours at room temperature.

Notes
- Sugar: Taste some of the blackberries. If they're tart and a bit underripe, you can add the full amount of sugar. If they taste quite sweet, the sugar can be reduced slightly.
- Cornstarch: You will need 3-4 tablespoons of cornstarch, depending on how juicy the berries are. Sweet and ripe berries tend to have more juice and may need closer to 4 tablespoons of cornstarch. Berries that are smaller and more tart will need about 3 tablespoons of cornstarch.
- Flour: If you'd prefer, use all purpose flour to thicken the berry mixture. Berries that are sweet and ripe tend to have more juice and may need about 2 tablespoons of extra flour. Berries that are smaller and more tart will need about ⅓ cup of flour.
- Leftover pie can be stored (covered) in the fridge for up to 3 days. Serve cold or reheat in the microwave.
