Variations

Gluten-Free Berry Pie

Replace the all-purpose flour with an equal amount of gluten-free flour blend. Make sure your baking powder is gluten-free as well. *Tip:* Adding a teaspoon of xanthan gum can help improve the texture of the gluten-free dough.

Vegan Berry Pie

For a vegan version, use vegan butter instead of unsalted butter, and replace the sour cream with a plant-based alternative like coconut yogurt. Instead of the egg, use a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water). *Hint:* For the glaze, you can brush the top with a mixture of almond milk and maple syrup.

Faq

  • How do I ensure my pie crust is flaky?

    Keep the butter as cold as possible and refrigerate the dough before rolling it out. This prevents the butter from melting into the flour, ensuring a flaky texture.

  • Why is my filling too runny?

    Make sure to cook the berry mixture on low heat until it thickens. You can also add an extra tablespoon of cornstarch if needed.

  • Can I use fresh berries instead of frozen?

    Absolutely! Fresh berries work just as well. They may require slightly less cooking time to thicken.

  • How can I make my pie look more appealing?

    Decorate the top with dough strips or shapes, and brush with the egg yolk and milk mixture for a golden finish. Get creative and have fun with it!

  • What’s the best way to store leftover pie?

    Store the leftover pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It should stay fresh for up to 4 days. You can also freeze it for up to 2 months.

  • Can I prepare the dough in advance?

    Yes, you can prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate it for up to 2 days or freeze it for up to a month. Just let it thaw in the fridge before use.
