Perfect Blackberry Lattice Pie

blackberry lattice pie

This homemade blackberry lattice pie features a bubbling, tart blackberry filling and a flaky, buttery lattice crust. It’s a stunning dessert perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 cups (about 700g) blackberries
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons (25g) cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1 double pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) water or milk
  • Pinch of salt (optional)
  • Coarse sugar for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and place a rack in the center.
  2. Roll out your first pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim excess dough around the edges.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine blackberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Stir gently to avoid smashing the berries.
  4. Transfer the blackberry mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.
  5. Roll out the second pie crust and cut it into 1-inch-wide strips using a pastry cutter or knife. Lay half the strips horizontally across the pie, then weave the other half vertically to create a lattice pattern.
  6. Brush the lattice lightly with a mixture of egg yolk and water or milk.
  7. Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  8. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving to allow the filling to set.

Notes

Chill your dough before rolling it out for easier handling. If your crust edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil halfway through baking. Taste your blackberries before adding sugar to adjust sweetness as needed.
