Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Dough

Start by cutting the cold butter into small cubes. Mix it with sugar and vanilla until the mixture is smooth.

Add the egg and mix well until fully incorporated. Gradually add the sifted flour mixed with baking powder and knead to form a smooth, non-sticky dough.

Step 2

Prepare the Berry Filling

Wash and dry the berries, ensuring they are clean. Sprinkle them with cornstarch and gently toss to combine.

Step 3

Make the Cream Filling

In a bowl, combine the sour cream with sugar. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow for flavors to meld.

Mix until the sugar is completely dissolved.

Step 4

Assemble and Bake

Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 20 cm (about 8 inch) pie dish. There is no need to grease the dish.

Fill the crust with the prepared berry filling evenly. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 25–30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

Once out of the oven, pour the cream filling over the hot pie.

Allow to cool at room temperature, then transfer to the refrigerator for at least 6–8 hours. This will ensure the cream filling sets and the pie reaches the right texture.

Faq

  • What can I use if I don’t have a pie dish?

    You can use any baking dish that fits the pie’s dimensions; just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly.

  • How do I know when my pie is done?

    Your pie is done when the crust is golden brown and the filling bubbles slightly at the edges. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean!

  • Can I use frozen berries?

    Yes! Just make sure to thaw and drain excess liquid from the berries before using them in your pie.

  • What type of berries work best?

    A mix of berries such as raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries create a delicious flavor profile, but feel free to experiment with your favorites!

  • How can I prevent my pie crust from getting soggy?

    You can brush the crust with a beaten egg before adding the filling or sprinkle some cornstarch on the crust to create a barrier.

  • Can I prepare the pie dough ahead of time?

    Absolutely! You can make the dough up to 3 days in advance and keep it wrapped in plastic in the refrigerator.
