Blackberry Apple Pie

Along with a young man by the name of Logan,we made two of these pies.  The recipe came from Taste of Home.  http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Blackberry-Apple-Pie  I used the recipe from the Lion House for the pie crusts.  http://www.deseretnews.com/food-dining/recipes/detail/1,5412,1601884,00.html  It was good pie.  But then I have never met a pie I didn't like.

Ingredients

Pastry for a double-crust pie (9 inches)

5 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples (about 5 medium)
1 pint fresh blackberries, rinsed and drained
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon water or milk

Directions

Line a 9-in. pie plate with bottom pastry; trim to 1 in. beyond edge of plate. Top with a thin layer of apples. In a large bowl, combine blackberries and remaining apples; sprinkle with lemon juice. Combine sugar and cornstarch. Add to fruit mixture; toss gently to coat. Spoon into pie shell; dot with butter.

Roll out remaining pastry; make a lattice crust. Trim, seal and flute edges. Beat egg with water; brush over lattice top and pie edges.

Bake at 375° for 50 minutes or until filling is bubbly and apples are tender. Cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature. Yield: 8 servings.
