My Oh My……Blueberry Pie

Blueberry pie recipe

When it comes to desserts, I would have to say that a slice of blueberry pie would have to be one of my all time favorites. I will pass over the chocolate, just give me a hunk of pie loaded with plump berries, and this one is certainly that. Filled with four cups of fresh blueberries, this pie is a winner.

Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 4 cups fresh blueberries
  • Pastry for a double crust pie, packaged or made from scratch
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Sanding sugar
Method
  1. Position oven rack in the lower part of your oven. Heat oven to 375° F.

  2. Place blueberries in a non-reactive mixing bowl and add lemon zest and lemon juice, toss to mix.
  3. Combine sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon and sprinkle over berries. Mix taking care not to crush the berries.
  4. Line pie dish with one pie crust. Pour berry mixture into the crust and dot with butter.

  5. Roll second pie crust and cut into 3/4″ strips. Weave the strips of pie crust over the top to create a lattice.
  6. Crimp and flute the edges. Sprinkle with sanding sugar if desired.
  7. Place pie on a parchment lined sheet pan, just in case, (much easier than cleaning the oven) and bake for 50 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
  8. Allow pie to completely cool before cutting, the filling will be extremely hot and may take several hours to cool.
  9. Enjoy!
