Nepenthe's Three Berry Pie

This is one of the best desserts we've ever served. Only slightly sweet, the tart fruit and delicious crumb topping are excellent when heated, then served with a scoop of rich vanilla ice cream.

The recipe for the filling will yield one 10" pie

Defrost frozen berries in a colander to drain excess juice. Mix ingredients together, let sit five minutes, fill in prepared crust, top with nut crumb topping, covering all berries.
