Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 cups (1.5 lbs/1 bag)- Northwest Wild Blue Huckleberries
5-T Cornstarch
2 cups- sugar
4 T- tapioca
1 t- grated lemon rind (fresh)
3- dabs of butter

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.

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. Some notes: baking your pie may take less time or a little longer depending on your oven. Just in case it starts to bubble over the side, place a sheet under the pie plate to save cleaning the oven. *Fresh or Frozen Wild Blue Huckleberries can be purchased year around at www.nwwildfoods.com

Tips:

  • Use fresh wild huckleberries whenever possible. Fresh huckleberries have the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh huckleberries, you can use frozen or dried huckleberries.
  • Don't overmix the pie dough. Overmixing the pie dough will make it tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Preheat the oven before baking the pie. This will help the pie crust to cook evenly.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. The pie is done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center of the pie comes out clean.
  • Let the pie cool slightly before serving. This will help the filling to set and the pie will be easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Wild huckleberry pie is a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tart filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give wild huckleberry pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
