- Chill dough for 1 hour, then roll out large ball to fit the bottom of a 9 or 10" pie dish.
- Now, mix sugar and all-purpose flour in a separate bowl, then add a dash of salt and stir in berries.
- Pour mixture into the empty pie shell,then roll out remaining ball of dough to make top crust.

- Bake in a preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.
