Add 1 tablespoon of margarine to a pot.

Stir the mixture to melt the margarine as the saskatoon berries are frozen.

Wait for the mixture to start bubbling.

Add 1/2 cup of white sugar and 3 tablespoons of cornstarch to the pot.

Keep stirring until the mixture gets very juicy and boils until it thickens.

Once thickened, remove from heat and prepare the pie shell.

Put the saskatoon berry mixture into the pie shell.

Place the other pie crust on top and make a slit for steam to escape.

Bake the pie in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes.

Check the pie after 30 minutes and leave it for another 5 minutes if needed.

Let the pie cool for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
