Description

Ingredients

• 1 package {2 crusts} refrigerated pie dough
• 12 oz {2 containers} fresh blackberries
• ¼ cup sugar
• 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• 1 egg, beaten
• additional sugar for topping

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 375F, and line two baking sheets with parchment.
• First, prepare the filling. Rinse the berries well, cut them in half, and place them in a medium bowl. Add in the sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and flour, and mix well.
• On a well-floured surface, lay out the pie crusts and gently roll them out to ¼ thickness.
• Using a large cookie cutter or other round object, cut out circles about 5 inches across.
• Place the circles of dough on the baking sheets, and spoon about 1 tbsp of filling in the center of each.
• Fold the dough over, and press the edges firmly with your fingertips to seal. Using a knife, gently cut 2-3 small slits on the top of each pie. Brush them with the beaten egg, and sprinkle a little bit of sugar on top.
• Bake for about 20 minutes, until golden brown and flaky. Let cool slightly, and enjoy!
