When the bustle of the summer season is settling on Anholt, wild blackberries pop up all over the island. The girls from Anholt Bakery pick several kilos for the freezer, which they enjoy when baking this tasteful pie. The dark, ripe berries bring an intense sweetness with a slight tartness that pairs perfectly with a crisp pastry base. It’s a simple recipe where the ingredients are allowed to speak for themselves, letting the true taste of a Danish summer shine through.

Ingredients

Crust

180 g. wheat flour
75 g. icing sugar
25 g. almond flour
1 tsp. vanilla sugar
1 tsp. cardamom
Lemon zest
110 g. cold butter
Two egg yolks

Crumble

60 g. oatmeal
60 g. sugar
60 g. cold butter

Filling

60 g marzipan
300 g. berries of choice (preferably frozen)
2 tbsp. sugar
Half a lemon

Method

Turn on the oven to 180 degrees hot air.

Mix the dry ingredients for the crust in a bowl and crumble in the butter. Cut the cold butter into small cubes for an easier process. Add the egg yolks and knead the dough until it is smooth. Wrap the dough in film and put it for rest in the fridge.

Crumble oatmeal, sugar and cold butter in a bowl and set aside.

Take the berries out of the freezer. Flip them with the sugar and the juice from the half lemon.

Take the crust dough out of the fridge. Roll it out on a floured table and move it with a rolling pin into a pie tin.

Add the oatmeal crumble on top of the crust. Grate the marzipan over it so that it forms a layer.

Add the berries and bake the pie in the oven for approx. 40 minutes.
