Ingredients
Scale
- 16 ounces frozen mixed berries, thawed
- ⅓ cup water
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 10 tablespoons Challenge Unsalted Butter
- 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2–3 tablespoons ice cold water
- 4 tablespoons Challenge Unsalted Butter
- ¼ cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Drain the thawed berries thoroughly and place them in a medium saucepan with ⅓ cup water.
- Heat the berries over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until some berries break down, approximately 3-5 minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water together until smooth.
- Add sugar and lemon juice to the berry mixture, then stir in the cornstarch slurry and mix well to avoid clumps.
- Stir constantly until the mixture thickens and starts bubbling, roughly 1-3 minutes.
- Once thick, remove from heat and transfer to a bowl or jar to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Notes
Ensure the berries are well-drained for the best texture.
Chill the filling before assembling the pies for better results.
Use cold water when preparing the crust for flakiness.
