Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons ice water
• 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 4 cups blackberries
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup water
• 1.25 cups white sugar
• 0.5 cup butter at room temperature
• 0.5 cup cold butter, diced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Bake in the preheated oven until berries are tender and crust is golden brown, about 30 minutes.

Step 3

Whisk 1 cup flour and salt together in a bowl; mix in ½ cup room temperature butter until it resembles cornmeal. Stir in 3 tablespoons ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough holds together. Refrigerate dough until ready to use.

Step 4

Place blackberries in a large bowl; sprinkle with sugar and 6 tablespoons flour. Stir in ¾ cup water until moistened; transfer filling to a 2-quart baking dish.

Step 5

Roll out dough on a floured work surface to ¼-inch thickness; cut into ¾-inch strips. Place 2 dough strips, starting with the longest strips, in an X in the center of filling. Alternate horizontal and vertical strips, weaving them in an over-and-under pattern. Use the shortest strips for the edges of the lattice. Scatter ½ cup cold diced butter over top.
