GRANDMA'S BLACKBERRY CAKE

I remember going berry picking with Mom and Grandma. Even at 70 years old, Grandma could pick 3 gallons of berries before I had my pail half full. Grandma made up this blackberry cake recipe with her mom, and it's been passed down for five generations now. -Diana Martin, Moundsville, West Virginia

Tips:

  • To make the perfect crust, use a combination of butter and shortening. This will create a flaky, tender crust that is not too tough.
  • Use fresh, ripe blackberries for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh blackberries, you can use frozen berries, but make sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust. Leave at least 1 inch of space around the edges for the crust to puff up during baking.
  • To prevent the pie from bubbling over, brush the edges of the crust with an egg wash before baking.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This should take about 45-50 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

Grandma's Blackberry Pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, sweet filling, and juicy blackberries, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give this recipe a try.
