This one is a keeper. Nice tart berries with a sweet topping.

I've made this pie at least 5 times now. It's become a requested favorite. I admit I use pecans instead of walnuts though...The combination of sweet and tart makes people remember it with a smile.This will be my Thanksgiving and Christmas pie contribution from now on.
