Apple Berry Pie

I baked Jon an apple berry pie for Daddy's Day using the other half of my pie dough that I put in the freezer after making the chicken pie. I just took it out in the morning to thaw in the fridge and it was ready to use by 5pm.

It's super easy to make a pie. I usually do an apple pie but I decided to add berries to it this time for something a bit different.

Pie crust

Oh man, why did I decide to make such a labor intensive and oven using meal last night when it was so hot? Sigh. Oh well. We had a chicken pie last night to use up leftover chicken. It was awesome. There are leftovers for lunch sometime in the next couple days.

This dough makes 4 crusts, enough for 2 complete pies.

  • 4 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 brick of Crisco (about 1 1/4ish cups)
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup cold water
