Cherry Berry Pie with Whole Wheat Pie Crust
I made this cherry berry pie with whole wheat pie crust as a way to use up some of the beautiful late summer fruit that Michigan has to offer. Paired with pure Michigan maple syrup, this recipe contains no refined sugar and is complemented with additional flavor from a whole wheat crust. A mix of any wild berries and/or cherries should work for this, but make sure to adjust the maple syrup amount depending on the sweetness of your fruit.
