Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Pie Crust: Mix all ingredients for the crust until well combined. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  2. Prepare the Filling: Wash and chop strawberries and blackberries. Combine with lemon juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes.
  3. Roll Out Dough: Roll out chilled dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Transfer to a baking sheet, ensuring it fits snugly.
  4. Assemble the Pie: Spoon berry filling onto the crust using a slotted spoon and cover with a top crust. Cut slits for steam if solid.
