- Using a sharp knife, cut several vents in the top crust.
- Place pie plate on a baking or cookie sheet and bake in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes.
- Watch the crust on the pie that it doesn't brown too much--cover with foil or a crust guard if necessary.
- Cool pie thoroughly on a wire rack before serving.

We had a ton of blackberries and I needed to use them... I found this recipe and gave it a try (never had blackberry pie before). It was really good! A little tart, a little sweet... I subbed Splenda for the sugar, and it worked fine (but wasn't as syrupy as pie filling usually is). I used with recipe #13619.
