If you are very conservative (or stingy) with your huckleberries and want to spread them thin in your recipes, you might want to consider making a huckleberry apple pie.
I found this recipe on the Spokane Public Radio website: Recipe Moments
Ingredients
Filling:
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3-4 apples (about 3 cups) peeled, cored & sliced
- 2 cups huckleberries
Crust (for two crusts - top & bottom):
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup shortening
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup ice water
Instructions
- Combine apples, berries, sugar, flour, and cornstarch. Set filling aside.
- Prepare crust by cutting shortening and butter into flour and salt. Add ice water slowly until mixture forms a ball. Roll out on waxed paper to make crust easy to pick up and transfer to pan.
- After placing filling in crust, dot with 1 Tbsp butter. Add top crust.
- Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 and bake 30 - 40 minutes longer until filling bubbles through slits in crust (hint: place piece of foil on bottom of oven to catch drips).
- Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
