Apricot blackberry pie

Pies
recipe

This is lightly adapted from Ruth Reichl's perfect Apricot Pie in her memoir Comfort Me with Apples. I've made it every summer for years as soon as I see apricots at the market. This year, I had a ton of blackberries for my little daughter so I felt compelled to add them! This is a very fresh, bright pie - the fruit is unsugared so you really taste their complex flavors. The topping is sweet, buttery and crunchy, fragrant with fresh nutmeg. I use salted butter, but you can use unsalted butter - just add a pinch of kosher salt to the flour, to taste. It can get a little runny, so you could sprinkle a breath of corn starch over the fruit before you add the topping. The juices are an incredible sunset of colors - who cares if a serving looks less a slice and more like a scoop? Not I, my friends. Not I.
