Cherry Berry Pie

Going to add this one in case the recipe turns out well. I made it up after reading several other recipes and a need to use up a frozen pie crust.

1 frozen 2 crust pie, thawed
1 lb frozen mixed berries (blueberries, blackberries and raspberries)
1 lb frozen cherries
2 Tbsp flour
2 Tbsp cornstarch
3/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp lemon peel
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Using a fork, poke a few holes in the bottom crust and place bottom crust of pie to pre-bake for 10 minutes. Also place an empty cookie sheet in to preheat.

While crust is pre-baking, mix frozen fruit and spices together. When crust comes out, turn oven down to 375 degrees. Pour fruit mixture into crust. Cover with top crust and cut a few slits into crust for vents. Place on preheated cookie sheet and put on lower rack of oven.

Bake for 65 to 75 minutes until done.


* This came out delicious. Next time will add more flour and cornstarch as the filling needs more thickening.
