Awesomely good apple-blackberry pie!

Ok, so I found this recipe on Allrecipes, so this is not my own! But it is really good! And I loved making it so I wanted to share it!

Apple-Berry Pie

20 min -prep time
50 min - cook time

1 pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
1 cup white sugar
4 tsp tapioca
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 cups fresh blackberries
2 cups apples-pealed, cored, and sliced
2 tbsp butter, cut into small peices

Preheat oven to 375. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one crust and place in a 9 inch pie plate. Roll out top crust, and set aside.

In a large bowl mix together the sugar, tapioca, and cinnamon. Add blackberries and apple slices. Toss gently to coat without mashing the berries. You could add the berries after coating the apples in sugar mixute, I did that the second time I made this and liked it much better since the berries didn't get as mashed ( I was using thawed frozen berries). Let stand for 2o minutes.

Spoon filling into pastry lined pan. Place small cut peices of butter on top. Moisten the edge of the pastry with water. Cover with top crust or make a latice top; trim and crimp edge. Cut a few slits in the top to allow to steam steam to escape (if using a full top). Cover edge with foil to prevent over-browning.

Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil, and continue baking for 20-25 minutes, or until crust is golden brown. Cool on wire rack.

This is one very good pie!! I doubt you will be dissappointed!
