Please don't ever stop! Now the question: If I substitute blueberries with raspberries, apple or peaches, would the sugar and flour quantities added to the filling change? thank you so much! Ana Hi,

Now the question: If I substitute blueberries with raspberries, apple or peaches, would the sugar and flour quantities added to the filling change?

My mother is one of those moms who works and looks for a quick, frozen apple turnover for dessert. Needless to say, she was blown away when I randomly made this pie on my day off. I LOOOVE the many pictures. Without those, I would have never been able to do this. I don't have a food processor, so I cut the butter in by hand (ow my arms!) but the crust turned out perfect. I think I added a little too much sugar in the filling, but that's my fault! Anyway, the pie was great, and easy enough for a first timer to follow! Thanks for the recipe, and the added courage to do it by showing all the pictures! I’m 17, and have never attempted pastry work, baking, or making a pie in any way.

For years I have avoided making a pie because, like many others, I was squeamish about home made crust. But the food processor hint made it so easy! The blackberry switch made it a little more tart but my guy LOVES tart, so it went over well (bonus points because he usually does not eat dessert). Thank you soooo much for this simple yet wonderful recipe! I just made this as little mini pies (used muffin tin) and with blackberries instead of blueberries.

Use your food processor. You'll be just fine. :D Let me know how it goes? And you're right...the crust would be fabulous for chicken pot pie. +Jessie Oh, silly pants. Use your food processor.

I'm scared of making a homemade pie crust, I usually just chicken out and buy them. I'll try it using the food processor. I'm sure that would be a good crust for homemade chicken pot pie also. Yum!
