Blackberry Silk Pie Recipes

BLACKBERRY SILK PIE

Steps:

• Add the berries and 1/4 cup sugar in a food processor; process for 30 seconds or long enough to make a smooth puree.
• Put a mesh sieve over a large bowl and pour the puree into the sieve.
• Using a rubber spatula, push or force the puree through the mesh, leaving the seeds; throw away the seeds.
• In a big mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy.
• Add in 3/4 cup sugar and the cornstarch and whisk until well blended.
• Blend in the heavy cream, light cream, vanilla, and 1 cup puree; mix until evenly blended.
• Ladle the filling into the cooled pie shell.
• Put the pie on the center oven rack and bake in a 300° oven for 50-60 minutes, rotating the pie 180° halfway through the baking (so that the part that faced the back of the oven now faces forward).
• When done, the filling will likely have puffed somewhat.
• The center may seem a little jiggly; that is fine.
• If after the alloted time, the pie seems overly puffy and the center a little underdon, turn the oven off and leave the pie in the hot oven for 10-15 minutes.
• **I always cover pie crust edges with foil to prevent over-browning. Remove the foil the last 10-15 minutes of baking time and pie crust edges will be lightly golden brown.

FRESH BLACKBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Place bottom crust in your pie place. (Tip: I spray my pie plate with cooking spray before I add the crust. I think this makes the pie come out of the pan easier). Prick bottom crust with fork. Mix all ingredients except butter, milk and brown sugar in a large bowl with a spoon. Pour into pie shell. Cut butter in pieces on top of filling.
• Place second pie shell on top and cut slits for steam to escape. Very lightly brush just a tiny bit of milk on top of the shell and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar. Bake in preheated 425 degree oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees and cook 20-25 more minutes until pie is brown on top. Let cool before cutting.

• Brush the top crust with milk, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the temperature of the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. Cool on wire rack.
