Saskatoon Pie Recipe - Authentic Canadian Dessert

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 2 cups Saskatoon berries (Fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (Freshly squeezed)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 package pie crusts (Store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (For dotting)
  • 1 egg beaten (For egg wash)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Prepare the filling

    In a large bowl, combine the Saskatoon berries, sugar, flour, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Mix well.

    Taste the mixture to adjust sweetness if necessary.
  3. Prepare the crust

    Roll out one pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie dish.

    Ensure the crust is even and covers the edges of the dish.
  4. Add the filling

    Pour the berry mixture into the prepared pie crust. Dot with butter if desired.

    Distribute the filling evenly for consistent cooking.
  5. Top with crust

    Cover with the second pie crust, sealing the edges. Cut slits for steam to escape.

    Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative look.
  6. Bake the pie

    Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until the crust is golden.

    Check the pie towards the end to prevent over-browning.
  7. Cool and serve

    Allow the pie to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.

    Serve with vanilla ice cream for a delightful treat.
