Ok, so who doesn’t like apple pie, right? Well my sweet friends, I have a serious upgrade for you on the basic, standard apple pie recipe! If you like apple pie then you are going to LOVE my apple huckleberry pie recipe!
I am lucky enough to live in an area where both huckleberries and blackberries grow wild EVERYWHERE! I have an annual ritual in the fall to go out and pick as many as I can fit in my freezer to stock up for the year.
Blackberries are also the perfect addition to apple pies if you don’t have access to huckleberries.
My kids absolutely LOVE it when I throw a handful of berries into their pancakes or waffles or make huckleberry muffins for an afternoon treat. Psstt! If you want to try an awesome muffin recipe check out my “The Best Muffins You Will Ever Make!” recipe. I have a few secret ingredients that may surprise you.
But the ultimate is a big beautiful apple huckleberry pie! It’s apple pie with a perfect kick of sweet/tart berries.
For the perfect crust try my >>>Perfect Pie Crust Recipe <<<. This pie crust recipe is the perfect balance between the richness and flavor of a butter crust and the beautiful flakiness of a shortening crust, ideal for intricate decorative pies.
PLUS!! I have a great video tutorial if you want to learn how to make a fancy decorative pie crust! Check it out here >>> How To Make Pretty Decorated Pies <<<
Happy pie making friends!
Have A Sweet Day!

I have this pie in the oven right now. It looks awesome. The only changes I made was I used 4 cups of apples and one cup of huckleberries, this filled my deep dish store bought pie crust. Eight cups of apples would have easily made two pies. Thanks for the recipe.
