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.
(Anyway youcan make with fresh or frozen berries)










Ingredients


350 grams all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
200 grams cold butter
1/2 cup ice water

Filling

4 or 5 cups of blackberries (fresh or frozen)
100 grams  sugar
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 tablespoon Port or jerez
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon lemon juice


Method


Add flour, salt, and sugar to a large mixing bowl. Add cold butter and use a pastry blender or fork to cut them into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add a tablespoon of water at a time until the dough begins to clump together dont o0ver mix maybe you not need all the water.
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

Mix the blackberries with the port,sugar,cinnamon, lemon juice and cornstarch and stir the mix.Pour mixture into unbaked pie shell.

Preheat the oven to 180°c (370 F)
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.
(I add some little leaves in the edge)
Brush top and edge with a mix of one yolk and milk.
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is blubbing.
