“Blackberries are plentiful where I am, and they taste great. Here is a recipe for such a pie. The pioneers thought that blackberries were a weed. Gradually it came into cookbooks for medicinal purposes - "blackberry syrup for cholera and summer complaint". This nuisance became very popular, and the berry is unique and very tasty.” - by Carol

"Complete success first time with company. One guest ate half the pie himself. I added 1 more tblespn of flour and used Splenda instead of real sugar. I used wild fresh picked, that morning berries. ..." See more Extremely easy to make with great results. Thank you."

"This pie has a great taste - just the right combination of sweet and tart. (I used wild berries.) The lemon juice adds a zing - but it doesn't taste lemony. It was pretty runny, though. More like a ..." See morecobbler. Maybe my berries were extra juicy. I'll increase the flour by 1/3 the next time. Also, the edges burned quickly at 450 degrees. I may either bake it all at one temp - or at 400 for the first period instead of 450. But overall...a very nice pie."
