Ingredients
- I use the almond pie crust1 for this recipe.
Ingredients:
•1 almond pie crust, baked (see link above)
•1 quart (4 cups) blackberries
•dash of salt
•3/4 cup water
•4 teaspoons corn starch
•1 Tablespoon butter (optional, but recommended)
•Sugar substitute to taste - about 3/4 cup - liquid form of Splenda preferred*
•*for example, you could use 3/4 cup Da Vinci's Simple Syrup instead of water
Preparation:
1) Mix the water, one cup of berries, salt, and sweetener in a saucepan (it should be big enough to eventually hold all the berries). Bring the mixture to a boil and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Berries should be softening and the liquid berry-colored.
2) Whisk cornstarch into mixture. Make sure it is fully dissolved. Cook until mixture darkens and clarifies (in other words, most of the lightness from the cornstarch goes away).
3) Add butter, and stir until melted. Add the rest of the berries, and stir until coated with the glaze.
4) Pour into baked shell and chill.
