Lattice- top blackberry pie (Pie de moras)







Suddenly there are things not expected or surprising like receiving a lot of fresh blackberries.
(about 5 kilos)
I usually freeze berries to have all year, but I also had to do something now, so I freeze someones, and   made blackberry jam and today this blackberry pie.
All in two days:)
Really delicious crust!
For those who start spring and soon summer will love this recipe.

Gently mold the dough into 2 separate balls. Press each ball gently with your hands into a flat disc. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Remove the dough from the fridge and allow to thaw fo 10 or 15 minutes. Place dough onto a lightly floured surface and begin to roll with a rolling pin, gently put the dough into your pie dish. Gently press it evenly into the plate.Trimp and crimp the edges.
Prick the bottom of the pie with a fork.

For filling

Roll out remaining piece of dough. Cut crosswise into stips with a fluted pastry wheel or knife.
Arranged strips in a tigh lattice patern on top of filling and trim strips close to edge of pan.
