Ingredients

• 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
• 6 cups fresh black raspberries
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
• 1 large egg white
• 1 tablespoon water

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine the black raspberries, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt. Toss gently to coat the berries evenly.
3. Pour the berry mixture into the prepared pie crust. Dot the top with the butter cubes.
4. Roll out the top crust and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal. Cut vents in the top crust for steam to escape.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg white and water. Brush the top crust with the egg wash.
6. Place the pie on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
7. Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
8. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
9. Tips:
10. If using frozen black raspberries, do not thaw them before adding them to the pie filling.
11. For a thicker filling, you can add an additional tablespoon of cornstarch.
12. If the edges of the crust start to brown too quickly, cover them with foil.
13. Let the pie cool completely before slicing to allow the filling to set
