Ingredients

2 (9-inch) pie doughs, homemade or store-bought
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 orange, zested
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into bits
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries, rinsed and picked over
1 1/2 cups fresh blackberries, rinsed and picked over
1 cup fresh raspberries, rinsed and picked over
1 1/4 cups fresh strawberries, rinsed and sliced

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Line 1 pie pan with 1 of the pie doughs, and place in the refrigerator. In a large bowl, stir together the sugar, orange zest, salt, lemon juice, and butter until combined. Gently add the berries to the bowl, and toss a few times until most are coated with the sugar mixture. Pour the berry mixture into the unbaked pie shell. Top with the second pie dough, folding the edges under and crimping together by pinching with the thumb and forefinger of one hand. With a sharp knife, cut a few slits in the center of the top crust. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, or until the dough is firm. Place pie in the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until crust is golden all over. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, and bake for an additional 40 to 50 minutes, or until berry juices bubble at center slits. If crust darkens too quickly, cover it with foil. Let pie cool on a wire rack before serving.

the taste was great; a rich dark sweetness. if it just weren't so runny. i'm sure there's a way to thicken up the filling, i... just don't know how. good luck!Read more

Yes, thickener, definitely
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

Use 4 tablespoons of tapioca or cornstarch for a berry pie like this. Add with sugar, and do no let the berry filling sit... long before adding to crust and putting in oven - no more than 15 minutes. Otherwise too much juice is sucked out of the berries by the sugar and thickener and the filling gets too runny. That is very strange they didn't list a thickener. That is big error on the part of whomever typed this up. Any pie with raspberries and/or blackberries needs plenty of thickener because these berries are so juicy.Read more

it helps to read the recipe before you try it! this pie has no thickening agent, and needs lots of cornstarch and/or tapioca,... or you will have berry soup!Read more

don't forget to add cornstarch
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This recipe neglected to mention the cornstarch that the chef on the show added. I used 1 tsp, but may need to adjust it next... time. The flavors were wonderful. A keeper!Read more

WOW!!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

We substituted Splenda for the sugar because my husband is diabetic. In the future, if I do that, I will adjust the... margarine because Splenda tends to melt into it rather than creaming with it. Other than that, I would suggest increasing the amounts of the berries to what comes in a store container. This pie was great!Read more
