How to Make Apple Blackberry Pie

  1. **Make the Topping:**
  2. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  3. In a food processor, combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup chopped pecans. Pulse until combined.
  4. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, using on/off pulses, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. **Make the Filling:**
  6. In a large bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  7. Add 6 cups peeled and sliced apples (about 6 medium) and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Toss gently to coat.
  8. Gently fold in 3 cups fresh blackberries.
  9. Pour the fruit filling into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  10. Sprinkle the pecan topping evenly over the filling.
  11. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.
  12. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
