WILD HUCKLEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Mix the above ingredients together with a spoon so that everything is well distributed;
• pour into the bottom pie shell as it sets in the pie plate.
• Dot the top of the mixture with 2 or 3 dabs of butter.
• Top off with the second pie shell.
• Once it is correctly positioned you should have a 1" overlap on the top crust so that it can be crimped with the bottom crust.
• Crimp or pinch the two crusts together and make a decorative edge to seal the two piecrusts.
• The pie can be refrigerated until you are ready to bake or baked immediately.
• To bake, preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
• Place the pie on the middle shelf of your oven and bake for 15 minutes then turn the temperature down to 350 degrees and continue baking for 30-40 minutes or until the filling starts to bubble over.
• Once the pie looks done and the crust is a light golden brown, it should be done.
• Take it out and let the pie cool on a cooling rack until it is ready to serve.
