Saskatoon Berry Pie image

This saskatoon berry pie recipe may not require you to turn your oven on if you have some pre-baked crusts on hand. Would probably taste great if made in a graham crust as well! I haven't tried this yet (as my berries got eaten before they got baked into anything) but it looks easy to make, maybe next year... Found in the Summer 2005 issue of Canadian Gardening.
