Black & Blue Pie
This Black & Blue Pie is a flaky pie crust filled with blueberries and blackberries. It’s the perfect dessert that is super easy and perfect for the summer!
I’m officially a high school graduate! As of June 17th, 2011 at about 5:10 P.M., I’m done with high school.
Seriously. Done.
It’s super weird, but I’m sooo excited to finally move on to something new. San Diego was an amazing place to grow up and I was always really fortunate to be able to attend some of the countries top public schools, but I’m ready for a change. So Seattle, here I come!
Before that though, I have an entire summer of fun, traveling, and of course, baking and eating! My house was filled with family this weekend who came in for my graduation and Father’s Day, so for our Father’s Day brunch I made a ridiculously delicious pie full of fresh blackberries and blueberries.
It’s the perfect balance of sweet and tart and a heavenly way to use up your abundant fresh berries! You could also do all blackberries (which I’ve done and is incredible as well) or all blueberries (which I haven’t tried, but I’m sure would be equally fabulous!). Whip this up at some point this summer, it’s so easy you have no excuse not to!
