Easy Berry Pie
This Easy Berry Pie is… well, so easy! I have never been big on baking pies; I’m just not that good at it. I’m more of a cake and cookie gal. But with this recipe, I’m turning over a new leaf and trying some pie recipes to get ready for Thanksgiving. I love the flavor of berry pies, but many pies made with frozen or fresh berries can turn out runny or soggy. Not the case with this pie recipe! The filling set up so well and stayed inside the first cut piece of pie instead of spilling out onto the pie plate. Has that ever happened to you? This is a recipe I will make again and again, since it’s a perfect recipe to ease into the art of pie making. My family loved it and it made the whole house smell so good while it was baking in the oven. Who knew it could be so simple to throw together a pie for dessert!
Tips for Perfect Berry Pie
- Let’s start with the crust. You can use our flaky recipe for the Perfect Pie Crust. It turns out beautifully every time and is not as hard to make as you think. However, if you want to keep things simple, use a store bought pie crust. There are some tasty options in the freezer section of your grocery store.
- Stay in the frozen foods section and buy the berries too! This is an easy recipe for berry pie, after all. It doesn’t get easier than frozen pie crust and frozen berries!
- Let the berries that in bags on the counter, which takes about 20 minutes.
- Feel free to switch up the berries too! This would be delicious with frozen blackberries, cranberries or cherries too.
- If your filling seems to runny, add a bit more cornstarch.
- Be sure to buy frozen berries without added sugar or it will taste too sweet.
- This pie is even more tasty when served with vanilla ice cream or whipped topping.
- Store berry pie either at room temperature or in the refrigerator. You’ll want to finish this pie within about a week or the crust can start getting soggy and not as tender and flaky.

I just need to know how to make a strawberry pie a fast way to make a creme strawberry pie
Echo says
I recommend using fresh strawberries if you are making a strawberry pie. If you are looking for a fast way to do it, you can buy a pre-made glaze found in the produce section of most grocery stores. Good luck!
Cora Fadigan says
Can you substitute blackberries, boysenberries, raspberries or a combination of any of the three for blueberries?

Judy Salmon says
I’m getting a new fridge so wanting to clean out the freezer, I used frozen crusts, approx. 5 cups total of mixed boysenberries, blueberries and cranberries. I chopped the frozen cranberries in the food processor first. Added a bit of grated ginger root and a dash of cinnamon.
It turned out perfect! The consistency is firm and not runny, and it’s not too sweet or too tart. Will be making more of these.
