Preparation

Step 1

1. Prepare pastry and divide in half.
Form each half into a ball. On a lightly
floured surface, roll one ball of the
pastry into a 12-inch circle. Transfer
the rolled-out pastry into a 9-inch
pie plate.
2. In large mixing bowl, stir together
the sugar, tapioca and cinnamon. Add
the blackberries and apple slices.
Toss gently till coated. Let stand
15 minutes.
3. Spoon filling into pastry-lined pie
plate. Dot with butter. Trim pastry even
with edge of the pie plate. Moisten the
edge of the pastry with water.
4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out
the remaining pastry into a 12-inch
circle. Cut slits in the pastry to let
steam escape. Place pastry on the
filling. Trim the top crust to 1/2 inch
beyond edge of pie plate. Fold top
pastry and crimp edge. Cover edge of
crust with foil to prevent overbrowning.
5. Bake in a 375° oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil. Bake for 20 to 25
minutes more or till the crust is golden
brown and the filling is bubbly. Cool on
a wire rack.
