Equipment

  • 9-inch glass pie dish
  • Saucepan
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 1 homemade or store-bought pie crust chilled

Blackberry Filling

  • 800 g blackberries fresh or frozen
  • 150 g granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 30 g cornstarch
  • 45 ml cold water

Crumble Topping

  • 125 g all-purpose flour
  • 100 g brown sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 90 g butter cold, cubed

Instructions
 

Prepare Crust

  • Roll out the chilled pie dough on a lightly floured surface to about ⅙ inch thick. Fit it into a 9-inch glass pie dish, leaving about ½ inch overhang. Trim and crimp or flute the edges. Chill the lined crust in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Use a fork to prick the bottom and sides of the crust to prevent puffing.
  • Line the crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights, dried beans, or uncooked rice. Ensure the weights reach the top edge of the crust.
  • Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Carefully remove the weights and parchment.
  • Prick the bottom of the crust again and return to the oven for 2 to 3 minutes, until it looks dry.

Prepare Blackberry Filling

  • Add blackberries, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt to a saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 8 to 12 minutes, stirring often.
  • Mix cornstarch and cold water to make a slurry, then add to the berries. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until thick and bubbling. Let cool.

Prepare Crumble Topping

  • In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Rub in the cold, cubed butter until crumbly.

Assemble and Bake

  • Spread blackberry filling into the par-baked crust and sprinkle crumble evenly on top.
  • Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 35 to 40 minutes, until crumble is golden and filling bubbles.

Cool and Serve

  • Cool the pie completely so the filling can set. For clean slices, cool for at least 4 hours or chill in the fridge.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
