- Spread huckleberries evenly over bottom of pie shell.
- Pour batter over berries and bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes.
- Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 30 minutes or until cake is done.
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh huckleberries. If fresh huckleberries are not available, you can use frozen huckleberries that have been thawed and drained.
- To make sure your pie crust is flaky, be sure to use cold butter and water. You can also freeze your pie crust dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
- If you don't have a pie plate, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly.
- To prevent the pie crust from getting too brown, you can cover it with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set and the pie will be easier to slice.
