Jumbleberry Pie

Source: Me - combining bits and pieces of various Jumbleberry Pie recipes I found via Google

Servings: 8
Prep Time: 15 minutes (excluding pie crust preparation)
Cook Time: 60 minutes 
Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes


Ingredients:
1 unbaked pie crust
6 cups mixed berries (I used a frozen raspberry, blueberry, blackberry blend from Costco)
1/3 cup cornstarch
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
1/8 tsp. cinnamon
1 tbsp. butter
1/4 cup half and half

Directions:
Mix berries, cornstarch, sugar, lemon juice, nutmeg, and cinnamon together in large mixing bowl. Pour mixture into bottom pie crust. If using a top crust, dot surface of berries with diced butter. Place top crust and seal edges. Cut 3-5 small ventilation slits in crust, brush with half and half, then sprinkle with additional sugar.

Bake at 425F for 20 minutes, then reduce heat for 375F and bake for additional 35-40 minutes.

Comments: This pie (that I made for Thanksgiving) was so easy and so delicious! Next time, I'll use a top and bottom crust and use closer to 1/2 cup of cornstarch to thicken the juices. I would suggest baking the night before your event to give it plenty of time to thicken. Most importantly, this MUST be served with vanilla ice cream! :)
