Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set properly.
For a richer flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the berry mixture.
If using frozen Saskatoon berries, there is no need to simmer the berries beforehand, simply drain and cool before mixing.
Ensure the pie crust edges are well sealed to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
To prevent the crust from browning too quickly, cover the edges with foil during the initial baking period.

Apr 19, 2025The tapioca really helps to thicken the filling. I added a little almond extract for an extra layer of flavor.
