Ozark Mountain Berry Pie

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 55 min. + cooling YIELD: 8 servings.
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

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
