Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise

“Very easy recipe,” according to one Allrecipes community member. “I used frozen blackberries and it came out wonderful. The ice cream on top really made it extra delicious. I followed the recipe as it was written. Will definitely make it again!”

“My husband said this was the best berry pie I’ve ever made,” raves nancy. “The filling set perfectly with no excess juice to make the bottom crust soggy. Brushing the top crust with milk and the sugar sprinkle yielded a golden, firm top crust. It is a super easy recipe.”

“This has been the favorite pie in our house for five years,” says adam housley. “Summer, winter, or fall, my wife and daughters always request this pie. Don’t skimp on the milk and sugar on the top crust — we’re all convinced that this is what makes the pie over-the-top great!”
