ELDERBERRY AND STRAWBERRY PIE RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven at 200°C to start off. Then, take the biscuits or cornflakes and make crumbs out of them. Put them on the side in a bowl. Cut the strawberries and also put them in a bowl on the side. Butter the six little pans, and gently put the pastry in it while folding what exceeds to thicken the edges. Put on or two spoons of the crumbs at the bottom of each little pie (it will absorb the water that will come out of the strawberries once you've put the pies in the oven) and cover them with elderberry jam (one or two coffee spoons will be enough). Generously stuff the pie with strawberries, and put what's left of the crumbs on top. You can put a little bit of sugar (or honey). With what's left of the pastry, you can decorate your pies. And then, you can take a brush and put some egg so that they won't burn in the oven. Put them in the oven at 200°C. After 15 minutes, turn down the oven to 150°C and leave them in for 15 more minutes. Take them out, and let them cool down for a bit, before eating them with sorbets and whipped cream. They are even better when they are still a little bit warm !

STRAWBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Quarter 2 pounds of the strawberries and set aside. Dice half of the remaining pound, then slice the remainder.
• Stir 1 tablespoon granulated sugar together in a bowl with the elderflower liqueur until the sugar dissolves. Toss with the diced berries and set aside to macerate at room temperature.
• Place the quartered strawberries in a medium pot and gently stir together with the jam, cornstarch, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and the remaining 1/3 cup granulated sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until the strawberries begin to break down and the mixture is thick and jammy, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool about 10 minutes, then stir in the reserved macerated berries.
• Pour mixture into the baked crust and allow to chill in the refrigerator until set, at least 3 hours.
• Decorate the top of the pie with the sliced berries in concentric circles. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Whip the cream along with the confectioners' sugar, vanilla and cream of tartar until it holds medium stiff peaks. Serve alongside the pie.

BLUEBERRY-ELDERFLOWER PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Put the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the butter and shortening; pulse just until the pieces are the size of large peas. While pulsing, gradually add the elderflower liqueur and 1/3 cup ice water until the dough comes together. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth. Divide the dough between 2 sheets of plastic wrap; use the plastic wrap to form each half into a disk. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Toss the blueberries, sugar, flour, elderflower liqueur and salt in a large bowl. Let sit until juicy, 30 minutes. Position a rack with a baking sheet in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
• Roll out 1 disk of dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate, pressing the dough into the bottom and up the side. Roll out the second disk of dough on a lightly floured surface.
• Toss the berries again and pour the mixture into the prepared crust. Moisten the edge of the crust with cold water and lay the second dough round over the filling; gently press the top and bottom crusts together around the edge. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edges. Cut a few slits in the top crust to let steam escape. Beat the egg with 1 teaspoon water. Brush the pie with the egg mixture and sprinkle lightly with sugar.
• Put the pie on the hot baking sheet and bake 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F; bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, about 55 more minutes. (Cover the edge of the crust with foil if it is browning too quickly.) Transfer to a rack and let cool at least 4 hours before serving.

ELDERBERRY PIE II

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Mix cornstarch in a little bit of water and add to berries and sugar. Cook, stirring constantly until desired thickness. Add more cornstarch if not thick enough. Add lemon juice.
• Pour into bottom crust. Dot with butter. Put on top crust or make a lattice.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) until browned and berries are bubbling through holes in the crust, approximately 40 minutes.
• Note: It is a good idea to put a pan or foil under the pie as it bakes since it might bubble over.

ELDERBERRY & ALMOND PIE

Steps:

• Make a syrup by first washing the berries well and stripping them from their stalks. Tip them into a pan with 2 tbsp water and half the sugar. Simmer for 10 minutes and add more sugar if you think you need it. After 10-15 mins the syrup will have thickened, at which point let it cool and strain through a fine sieve to get rid of any pips. Set aside.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Roll the pastry out on a lightly floured surface and cut into two circles - one large enough to line the base of a 20cm pie dish and the other for the lid. Grease the tin with the butter and line the base with the larger round of pastry. Scatter over the ground almonds, then pour the elderberry syrup on top. Brush the edges of the pastry with water and drape over the lid and press or crimp the edges together and make a hole in the top. Brush the top with water and sprinkle with the remaining sugar. Bake for 40-45mins until the pastry is crisp and golden. Leave to cool a little then enjoy warm cut into slices with crème fraîche, yoghurt, or ice cream.
