Ingredients

Crust

  • 2 1/2 c. almond meal/flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 c. Organic palm oil shortening I used Nutiva
  • 2 tbsp. pure maple syrup
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Filling

  • 1/2 c. fresh or frozen Oregon blackberries
  • 1 tbsp. honey

Instructions

Crust

  1. In a medium sized bowl, combine dry ingredients and set aside. In a small bowl, combine wet ingredients (melt palm shortening prior to mixing it into the batter). Stir wet ingredients into dry. Carefully knead dough into a ball, then gently roll out into a circle to 1/4 in' thickness. Using a biscuit or circle cookie cutter, cut pie crust into circles. Cover with wet paper towel until filling is ready.

Filling

  1. Heat blackberries in a saucepan with honey over medium heat. Mash slightly & remove from heat when warmed.

Hand Pies

  1. Preheat oven to 375 F. On top of one pie crust circle top with 1 tbsp. crushed blackberries. Top with another pie crust. Carefully seal edges using a fork. Brush with liquid from warmed blackberries. If desired, sprinkle with raw organic sugar. Bake for 10–15 minutes, or until golden. Remove from oven to cool.
