How to Make Pear Blackberry Pie With Cardamom

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Peel, core, and thinly slice 6 ripe pears.
  3. In a large bowl, gently combine the sliced pears, 2 cups of fresh blackberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cardamom, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix until well combined.
  4. Carefully pour the pear and blackberry filling into the prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  5. For the crumble topping: In a food processor, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes, with 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour.
  6. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the pie filling, starting from the center and leaving a 1-inch border.
  8. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
  9. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set properly and enhances the flavors.
