MILE-HIGH SUMMER BERRY PIE

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon vodka or white vinegar
1/3 cup ice water, plus more if needed
2 1/2 pounds mixed fresh blueberries, raspberries and blackberries
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Pulse the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor. Add about one-third of the butter; process until incorporated. Pulse in the remaining butter until coarse crumbs form, 5 or 6 pulses. Add the vodka or vinegar, then pour in the ice water, pulsing quickly as you pour. Pinch the dough; it should just hold together. If it's too crumbly, quickly pulse in up to 2 more tablespoons ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Turn out the dough onto a large sheet of plastic wrap. Wrap the dough, then flatten into a disk. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 12-inch round. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim the excess dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Fold in the edges and crimp. Refrigerate the crust at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges of the crust are just golden and beginning to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 20 minutes. Remove the parchment and weights and bake until the crust is a deep golden brown all over, about 20 more minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.
  • Make the filling: Mash 1 cup of the berries in a small bowl with a large fork. Place the remaining berries in a large bowl and set aside. Whisk together the granulated sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan. Whisk in the water until smooth, then stir in the mashed berries. Place the pan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture begins to bubble and thicken, the cornstarch becomes opaque and the sauce turns a deep berry color, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve over the bowl of whole berries; fold the liquid and the berries together with a rubber spatula to evenly coat. Spoon the berry filling into the cooled pie crust in an even layer. Refrigerate until set, at least 1 hour.
  • Make the topping: Beat the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes. Add the sour cream and beat until stiff again, about 2 more minutes. Mound the whipped cream on top of the pie; use the back of a spoon to make swoops and peaks. Slice and serve, or refrigerate for up to 1 day.

SUMMER BERRY PIE



Summer Berry Pie image

Beautiful pie, you'll love it!! If blackberries are not available, use 3 cups each of raspberries and blueberries. When pureeing the berries, be sure to process them for a full minute; otherwise, the yield on the puree may be too small. Apple jelly can be substituted if red currant jelly is unavailable. If you have a salad spinner, line the basket with paper towels, add the berries, and spin until dry.

Categories     Pie

Time 1h

Yield 1 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

9 graham crackers, broken into rough pieces
2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and warm
2 cups raspberries (about 9 ounces)
2 cups blackberries (about 11 ounces)
2 cups blueberries (about 10 ounces)
1/2 cup granulated sugar (3 ½ ounces)
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
2 tablespoons red currant jelly
1 cup cold heavy cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • For the crust: Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • In a food processor, process the graham crackers until evenly fine, about 30 seconds (you should have 1 cup crumbs).
  • Add the sugar and pulse to combine.
  • Continue to pulse while adding the warm melted butter in a steady stream; pulse until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Transfer the crumbs to a 9-inch glass pie plate.
  • Using a ½-cup dry measuring cup, press the crumb mixture into the plate.
  • Use your thumb to square off the top of the crust.
  • Bake the crust until fragrant and beginning to brown, 15 to 18 minutes; transfer to a wire rack and cool completely while making the filling.
  • For the filling: Combine the berries in a large colander and gently rinse (taking care not to bruise them); spread the berries on a rimmed baking sheet lined with paper towels and gently pat dry with additional paper towels.
  • In a food processor, puree 2 ½ cups mixed berries until smooth and fully pureed, about 1 minute.
  • Strain the puree through a mesh strainer into a small nonreactive saucepan, scraping and pressing on the seeds to extract as much puree as possible (you should have 1 ¼ to 1 ½ cups).
  • Whisk the sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a small bowl to combine, then whisk the mixture into the puree.
  • Bring the puree to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon; when the mixture reaches a boil and is thickened to the consistency of pudding, remove from the heat, stir in the lemon juice, and set aside to cool slightly.
  • While the puree is cooling, place the remaining berries in a medium bowl.
  • Heat the jelly in a second small saucepan over low heat until fully melted.
  • Drizzle the melted jelly over the berries and toss gently with a rubber spatula to coat.
  • Pour the slightly cooled puree into the cooled pie shell and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Distribute the glazed berries evenly over the puree and gently press them into the puree.
  • Loosely cover the pie with plastic wrap; refrigerate until chilled and the puree has set, about 3 hours or up to 1 day.
  • For the whipped cream: Just before serving, beat the cream, sugar, and vanilla with an electric mixer on low speed until small bubbles form, about 30 seconds.
  • Increase the speed to medium; continue beating until the beaters leave a trail, about 30 seconds longer.
  • Increase the speed to high; continue beating until the cream is smooth, thick, nearly doubled in volume, and forms soft peaks, about 30 to 60 seconds.
  • Cut the pie into wedges and serve with whipped cream.

JUMBLEBERRY PIE (SUMMER BERRY PIE)



Jumbleberry Pie (Summer Berry Pie) image

Categories     Berry     Dairy     Dessert     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Summer     Gourmet     Small Plates

Number Of Ingredients 16

For 2 recipes pâte brisée:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
2 tablespoons cold vegetable shortening
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups blackberries, picked over and rinsed
3 cups blueberries, picked over and rinsed
2-1/2 cups raspberries or other summer berries such as red currants or boysenberries picked and rinsed
1/3 cup cornstarch
1-1/2 cups sugar plus additional for sprinkling the pie
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut into bits
1/4 cup half-and-half
peach and brown sugar ice cream as an accompaniment if desired

Steps:

  • To make pâte brisée:
  • In a large bowl blend the flour, the butter, the vegetable shortening, and the salt until the mixture resembles meal. Add 2 tablespoons ice water, toss the mixture until the water is incorporated, adding more ice water if necessary to form a dough, and form the dough into a ball. Dust the dough with flour and chill it, wrapped in wax paper, for 1 hour.
  • Roll out half the dough 1/8-inch thick on a lightly floured surface, fit it into a 9-inch deep-dish (1 quart) pie plate, and trim the edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Chill the shell while making the filling. In a large bowl toss together the berries, the cornstarch, 1-1/2 cups of the sugar, the lemon juice, the nutmeg, and the cinnamon until the mixture is combined well, mound the filling in the shell, and dot it with the butter bits.
  • Roll out the remaining dough into a 13- to 14-inch round on a lightly floured surface, drape it over the filling, and trim it, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Fold the overhang under the bottom crust, pressing the edge to seal it, and crimp the edge decoratively. Brush the crust with the half-and-half, make slits in the top crust, forming steam vents, and sprinkle the pie lightly with the additional sugar. Bake the pie on a large baking sheet in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 20 minutes, reduce the heat to 375°F., and bake the pie for 35 to 40 minutes more, or until the crust is golden and filling is bubbling. Serve the pie with the ice cream.

Tips:

  • For the perfect balance of tart and sweet, use a combination of sweet and tart berries like strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries.
  • Don't overmix the dough, as this will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will make it easier to work with and prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the lemons for the topping. This will help prevent them from tearing.
  • Don't overcook the pie, as this will make the crust dry and the berries mushy. Bake it just until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Allow the pie to cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will help the filling to set and the flavors to meld together.
