Fresh Berry Crumb Pie is a delicious way to enjoy berry season. You can use your favorite berries. This pie is simple because you don’t need to make a pastry crust.

Berry Season might be my favorite season. I love berries. Jamie loves berries. We have so many berry recipes. Lots of Strawberry and Raspberry, and a few Blackberry and Blueberry.

Why is my berry pie so runny?

Most berry pies are runny because they need to bake a little longer. The thickener used in the recipe needs a little longer to activate. In this recipe, flour is used and needs a little longer for it to begin thickening.

For this recipe, the top will get toasted a little too much if you leave it in long enough for it to not be runny. Covering it for the first 10 minutes will help it be thickened and not have a burned top.

How long will a berry pie last?

A berry pie will last 2-3 days unrefrigerated and 7 days in the refrigerator.  A berry pie can also be frozen if needed.

How should I store other pies?

According to the USDA pies that are made with eggs like pecan or pumpkin pie need to be refrigerated. Cream & custard pies also need to be refrigerated. Fruit pies can be kept at room temperature or in the refrigerator.

What pies can I freeze?

Fruit, pumpkin, and pecan pies can be frozen. Custard, cream, and meringue pies should not be frozen. If freezing, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and then with foil. This will prevent freezer burn. It will be good for up to 3 months.

I like to eat the leftovers for breakfast.
