My Grandmother’s Best Berry Pie

This recipe is for my grandmother’s best berry pie. It is a delicious mix of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries in a flaky crust. This pie is perfect for any summer gathering or family dinner.

Ingredients

• 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
• ⅜ cup butter, softened
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ⅜ cup white sugar
• 1 egg, beaten
• 2 ½ cups fresh blueberries

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (205 degrees Celsius).

2. In a medium bowl, combine flour and butter or margarine. Blend thoroughly.

3. Add baking powder, vanilla, sugar, and egg; mix thoroughly. Let dough rest for about 25 minutes.

4. Lay enough dough in the center of a pie dish to cover the bottom and sides of the dish; spread evenly over bottom and up sides of dish with your fingers or a spoon until it resembles crust dough. There will be some dough left over for top of pie later on step 6)

5. Take a fork, and make holes with it here and there along the bottom of the pie dough (this is called docking). This allows steam to escape while baking so that your crust does not become soggy from within due to trapped moisture/steam

6) Let the dock-prickedpie dough rest again for another 25 minutes while you prepare berry filling

7) For this recipe we are using fresh blueberries but feel free to use any type of berry you like: raspberries, strawberries, blackberries etcetera

8) Wash berries gently in colander under cold water then drain well

9) place berries
