Enjoy the delightful flavors of mulberries and warm spices in this homemade mulberry spice pie. The pie crust is perfectly flaky, while the filling is sweet, tangy, and spiced to perfection. It's a wonderful dessert option for any occasion, and it pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients

• 2 cups mulberries
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 package refrigerated pie crusts

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mulberries, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Mix well until the berries are coated evenly with the mixture.
3. Roll out one pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges as needed.
4. Pour the mulberry filling into the pie crust and spread it out evenly. Dot the top of the filling with butter.
5. Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Trim the edges and crimp them together with the bottom crust to seal the pie.
6. Cut a few slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
7. Place the pie dish on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
8. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the filling to set.
9. Serve the mulberry spice pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
