Mixed Berry Streusel Pie
Description
Mixed Berry Streusel Pie combines frozen mixed berries with a traditional pie crust for a fruity dessert that balances sweet and tart notes. The berry filling gains body from flour and sweetness from sugar, while vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor. Topping the pie with a streusel made of flour, granulated and brown sugar, rolled oats, and softened butter adds a crumbly, slightly crunchy layer that contrasts with the soft berries.
Baking the pie at 350°F for about an hour ensures the crust becomes golden and firm, while the streusel topping crisps up nicely. Cooling completely before slicing allows the filling to set for cleaner cuts. The pie pairs well with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, which provide creamy textures to complement the sweet and tart berries and crispy topping.
The recipe notes that the streusel quantity is generous and can be halved for those preferring a lighter top layer. Overall, this pie offers a balance of textures and flavors suitable for seasonal desserts or berry lovers.
Ingredients
- 1 inch pie crust homemade or store-bought frozen
for the berry filling-
- 20 oz. mixed berries two 10 oz packages) I used Simple Truth Organic brand, frozen
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
for the streusel topping-
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 6 tablespoons butter softened
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- If using frozen pie crust, remove from freezer and set aside. If using homemade pie crust, keep refrigerated until ready to fill.
- In a large bowl, stir frozen berries, vanilla extract, sugar, and flour until well coated. Pour into pie crust and even out the top.
- In another separate bowl, measure out streusel ingredients. Using your hands, mix the streusel until it comes together and the butter is well incorporated throughout and everything is like moist sand. Spread 3/4 of the streusel over the frozen berries.
- Bake pie for 1 hour or until crust and topping are golden brown. Cool completely before cutting and serving. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- The streusel topping quantity is quite ample; you may use about half if you prefer a lighter covering on the pie.
