Mile High Bumbleberry Pie

Submitted by Chef mariajane

"What a great tasting pie especially in the summer at the height of berry season, but just as good with frozen berries. Instead of using fresh berries, substitute 1 package (600g) frozen mixed berries, thawed. Drain berries well, reserving1/4 cup juice to replace water. Measure out 1 cup berries to replace blueberries."
