Scale
Pie Crust:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
- 6–8 tablespoons ice water
Berry Filling:
- 4 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen; such as blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries)

- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Additional:
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Pie Crust: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide, shape into discs, and chill.
- Berry Filling: Mix berries with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, zest, and cinnamon.
- Assembly: Roll out one dough disc and fit it into a pie dish. Fill with berry mixture. Create a lattice top with the second dough disc. Bake until golden. Cool before serving.
Notes
- If using frozen berries, do not thaw to prevent excess moisture.
- Place a baking sheet under the pie to catch drips while baking.
- Delicious with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
