I followed the recipe as stated, except I forgot to add the TBSP. of butter (did not miss it). This turned out perfect!!! Thanks for sharing your recipe!

This is an amazing pie! I used it with the "Best Ever Pie Crust" recipe. I put in half the amount of sugar (I don't like really sweet pie), extra blackberries and it came out perfect. I'll make this one again. Thanks Carol!

This was a very tasty pie . . . but then what blackberry pie isn't tasty? Unfortunately, my pie didn't set up very well and was quite runny (a problem I've never had with other blackberry pie recipes). I'm probably to blame, as I was very generous in my measuring of the blackberries and should have probably thrown in an extra tablespoon of flour to compensate.

This is the first time I've made a blackberry pie. The only thing I did differently (after reading the reviews) was add 1 Tbsp. of cornstarch and l/2 tsp. of cinnamon to the berries. It turned out beautifully and my husband raved about it. This recipe is a keeper!

this is a great recipe, but i agree that it is too runny. I took out a little of the flour and put in about a half cup of instant tapioca. this helped the liquid at the bottom, as long as the pie is given at least a half hour to 45 minutes to cool. the flavor is still great!

I've taken this to two picnics and my only disappointment has been that there was never any left to take home! It's so good, and so simple! I admit, I used frozen blackberries, and if it was good with frozen blackberries I can just imagine how good it would be with fresh!

I don't know why this pie has had so many rave reviews. I made it exactly as the recipe stated, except I DOUBLED the amount of flour, since all the reviewers said it was too runny. Even with that alteration, this pie dripped a massive amount of juice when it was baking, and ended up way too runny, even with the added thickening from the flour. I pride myself on my home-baked pies, and I will never make this one again! I gave this pie two stars, and even then it was only because it at least had a good flavor.

We picked fresh blackberries at a nearby farm and used this recipe to make one of two July 4th desserts.

Recently picked blackberries for the first time and my family begged for a pie. One problem...I had never made a pie before. I checked on this wonderful site and found this very simple and well-rated recipe. We were not disappointed. The pie turned out delicious. I did add an additional tablespoon of flour b/c of others claiming their pie was too runny. It was perfect! Thank you for an easy, yet tasty, recipe.

The flavor is magnificant but I poured nearly two cups of waterlike juice out of the pie even after it had cooled for hours. It was definitely more like a cobbler.

I made this pie and took it too a party...it was a HUGE hit! they said I should enter it in the county fair! I used fresh home grown blackberries, but I used a store bought crust. for the flour, I put in 1/3 cup instead of 3 tablespoons. this got it to be a bit less runny. I tried it again but made my own crust and it was also very good. TIP: let the pie sit in your fridge overnight to thicken up before eating. it is a lot less runny that way. otherwise, VERY nice pie!

This was an awesome pie. I had never had a blackberry pie and happened to have a bucket of blackberries needing a purpose. This has been added to my family cookbook!

Very good! I added more flour, as others had suggested, still a little runny. I think I'll do cornstarch next time. Also cut sugar to 3/4 c. Thanks!

I've made this recipe quite a few times and it always turns out spectacular. The pie never seems to last more than a day..two at the most and it's only me and my husband. We can't stop eating it. I usually eyeball the ingredients(adding a little more flour if the berries are fresh and extra juicy) I also use Splenda instead of sugar. I've always used the Pillsbury pie dough (very easy) and the only thing I do differently is to wash the top with a little half and half and sprinkle with brown sugar (a little more that a tsp) over the top crust. I've also used a mixture of frozen berries (sometimes assorted) with fresh if I come up short on the amount needed to fill the pie tin. Always turns out perfect! This is a keeper!

My family wanted a quick New Year's Eve pie to ring in 2008, and this one exceeded our expectations. I modified the following: I split the berry quantity to include blackberries and raspberries, added 1 tablespoon corn starch, and omitted the butter. Yummy!
