Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh huckleberries
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup sugar (divided)
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold)
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 4–6 tbsp ice water
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Gradually add ice water until the dough holds together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least one hour.
- Preheat and Roll: Preheat oven to 375?F (190?C). Roll out chilled dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle.
- Fill: Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Toss huckleberries with 0.25 cup sugar and place them in the center, leaving about two inches around the edges.
- Fold Edges: Gently fold the dough over the berries, creating pleats. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle remaining sugar on top.
- Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and bubbly. Allow to cool slightly before slicing.
