I am so terribly sorry I used this recipe. I had picked a bunch of wonderfully delicious wild blueberries and had some raspberries from my garden, so I thought why not? I used the suggested amounts of lemon zest and cinnamon and they completely masked the flavor of the blueberries. RUINED IT. Next time I skip the additions and go with the straight wonderful fruit. I wasted an hour of berry picking and those beautiful blueberries with this crappy recipe.

This pie is delicious! I put slightly less blueberries and added a granny smith apple for variety- although it was not necessary- smelled so good cooking and tasted even better- the raspberries really make this pie
