BRAMBLEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Put an oven rack on the lowest rung and preheat oven to 375°. Lightly dust your counter and rolling pin with flour, then unwrap one disk of dough. With short strokes from center outward, roll dough into a 12-in. circle (about 1/8 in. thick), turning 90° after every 3 or 4 passes of the rolling pin to keep it from sticking. Transfer dough to a 9-in. pie pan, letting it fall into place (if you push or stretch the dough, it will shrink back when baked). Trim overhang to 1/4 in. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 15 minutes and up to overnight. Meanwhile, roll second disk into an 11-in. circle. Transfer to a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 15 minutes and up to overnight.
• While crusts chill, put berries in a large bowl. Sprinkle with flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, tapioca, lemon juice, and salt. Stir gently until berries are well coated. Taste and add more granulated sugar if you like.
• Pour berry mixture into chilled bottom crust and dot with butter. Unwrap top crust and lay over pie. Fold bottom crust edge up over edge of top crust and crimp edges together. Cut several vents in top crust and sprinkle with remaining 1 tsp. sugar. Put pie on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crust is browned and filling is bubbling, 60 to 75 minutes. (Cover edges with foil if they become too dark before middle of top is nicely browned.)

BUMBLEBERRY PIE - MIXED BERRIES AND APPLE

Steps:

• If you are preparing your own pastry crust, follow the steps indicated in the recipe found at the end of the link and then let rest. If you use a store-bought pastry crust, skip to the next step below.
• Peel all the apples. Slice them in thin slices (about a quarter or a Euro coin thickness). If you choose to use rhubarb instead of apples, follow the same steps for the rhubarb.
• Put all the sliced apples into a non-reactive bowl. Mix about half of the tapioca flour or cornstarch with about half of the sugar and add to the apples. Add seasoning. Let rest and mix while you prepare the pie crust.
• Preheat oven to 180°C / 350°F. Roll out your homemade or store-bought pastry crust into a pie tin. Fold over the top of the crust into your preferred pattern. I usually just crumple the dough using my forefinger and thumb going around the top edge. Make sure you prick the bottom of the pie crust several times.
• Put the remainder of your tapioca flour, flour or cornstarch in a bowl. Remove the frozen berries from the freezer and add them to the bowl. If you use fresh berries, add them now following the same steps. Stir them gently into the tapioca flour, flour or cornstarch so all the fruit is lightly coated. This will help the fruit keep their form as much as possible.
• Add the remainder of the sugar to the berries. Mix the berries into the bowl with the apples or rhubarb. Add the lemon juice and let sit a couple minutes.
• Place the fruit into your pie tin. You can either do this in attractive manner by making a design or simply by pouring the fruit in. Either way, I usually fix the fruit a little so the fruit is evenly placed around the pie and it looks as attractive as possible.
• Put little pieces of butter (fingertip size) randomly on top of the pie. If you prefer you can push them down a bit into the fruit.
• Place the pie dish in the top half of the oven for approximately 55 minutes or until the crust is golden and the fruit looks cooked. I usually turn my pie half way and then gauge my time from how it looks at that moment. Start checking it though after 40 minutes or so to prevent from burning. Everyone's oven is different. Sometimes if the crust looks like it is browning too early, I will place at this time a sheet of foil loosely on top of the pie (not folded down onto the pie) to help prevent the crust from burning before the fruit filling is done.
• Remove the pie from the oven and let cool before serving. It can be served warm (not hot) with ice cream or at room temperature however you wish. The pie might be more liquidy if you serve it warm than if it is cooled completely.

Cut several slits in the top layer to allow steam to escape-alternatively, cut shapes out of the crust or do a lattice crust instead. Flute the edges of the crust together.
• Combine the egg and water in a small bowl and use a pastry brush to brush the mixture over the pie crust. Set the pie on a large baking sheet and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, until the berry juices have released and are bubbly and the crust is light golden.

THEN TURN OFF THE HEAT AND MOVE THE PAN OFF THE BURNER TO COOL. LET COOL FOR ONE HOUR BEFORE PACKAGING FOR THE FREEZER.
• 4. Prepare your crust. You can make your own pie crust or use a ready made one. You will need two crusts, a top and a bottom. Lay the bottom crust into a 9 inch deep dish pie pan. Press it into the pan. Shape the upper edges as you like, flute, roll, or pinch. Roll out the top crust.
• 5. Pour the filling into the bottom crust. Cut the butter into small pieces and dot the filling. Cover the pie with the top crust. Trim to fit and finish the edges. Cut several slits into the top crust, for steam vents. REDUCE the oven to 350 degrees then put the pie in the oven. (you might want to use a pie shield or a strip of foil over the edge of the pie for the first 30 minutes, to prevent over-browning.) Bake for 45 minutes, until the berries bubble and the crust is golden brown. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before cutting, approximately 4 hours.
