I think the best berries in the world are grown in the Ozarks. We own a small berry farm, and this is one of my favorite recipes. It's delicious served warm. —Elaine Moody, Clever, Missouri

Very good recipe and versatile. I used this recipe twice. I made a one-crust pie, and topped with a crumb crust. The second time, I made as a berry crisp to save time. I put the filling in a dish and covered with a crumb topping. I served with ice cream and everyone loved it.

Can I use apples, cranberries, and raspberries instead?

Have made it four times already except just used blackberries and sugar substitute. Still tasted wonderful and disappeared in minutes. Family loved it and didn't know it contained no sugar! I'll keep making it until I'm no longer able to cook!

I made this last night, taste awesome. The only problem I had was the pie setting up. I don't have very good luck with cornstarch so will try wonder flour next time. Will make this several times again.

I absolutely LOVE this recipe! The flavor is perfect and it sets up nicely. I use frozen berries for convenience and have done this both as a pie and as a cobbler. It never lasts long! I do add extra raspberries because I like the flavor and it sets up fine.

I made this pie on the weekend and found it a bit too sweet for our tastes....I will try it again but cut the sugar and/or add a bit more lemon juice (like the lime idea too) The pie set up very nicely and looked pretty too..topped with some good vanilla ice cream....mmm.
