Easy Blueberry Pie Recipe From Scratch
Easy Blueberry Pie Recipe From Scratch!
Ingredients
- 5 1/2 cups Fresh Blueberries rinsed - approx. five 6 oz. containers - {frozen blueberries thawed and drained can be substituted}
- 1 tbsp Fresh-Squeezed Lemon Juice
- 1 cup Granulated {White} Sugar
- 1/3 cup Tapioca Flour {also known as Tapioca Starch}
- 1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
- 1 Egg beaten {for interior of bottom crust}
- 1 tbsp Cold Butter {cut into tiny pieces}
- Two 9″ Pie Crusts {homemade or refrigerated store-bought crusts}
For Egg Wash for Top Crust:
- 1 Large Egg {beaten well}
- 1 tbsp Milk
- 1 pinch Salt
For Topping:
- 2 tsp Turbinado Sugar {Sugar in the Raw}
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Carefully place one pie crust in 9″ pie dish. Trim and fold edges over, and crimp, pinch, or flute around the entire edge.
- Brush inside of bottom crust with beaten egg… this will prevent it from becoming soggy while baking.
- In small bowl, whisk together Sugar, Tapioca Flour, and Cinnamon until well combined.
- Pour Blueberries into large bowl, then pour Sugar mixture over blueberries, drizzle with Lemon Juice, and stir with a large wooden spoon until well combined.
- Transfer blueberry mixture into pie crust in dish, leaving any excess liquid in the bowl.
- Then dot with pieces of cold butter
- Now… it’s time to work on your top crust! Make sure to leave adequate holes or gaps for venting. You can either use small cookie cutters to cut out shapes {like stars}, use Pastry Stampers, or create a woven lattice. If creating a lattice, I like to roll the dough out on a cutting board and slice a variety of sizes of strips, using my pizza cutter.
- Once you’ve laid out your top crust, it’s time for the egg wash. Beat 1 Large Egg well, then stir in 1 tbsp. Milk + a pinch of salt. Dip your pastry brush in the egg mixture, and brush over the entire top and outer edges of your pie crust.
- Once you’ve finished your Egg Wash, evenly sprinkle the top of the crust with Turbinado Sugar.
- Place pie on cookie sheet {it will catch any potential spills that bubble ever}
- Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes, add your Pie Crust Shield to keep the edges from burning, adjust temperature to 375 degrees, and bake for 45 – 50 more minutes, or until done and top crust is golden brown.
- Transfer to wire rack and cool for several hours prior to serving, allowing pie filling to solidify. The longer the better! {If I make mine in the morning, I let it solidify all day long to enjoy in the evening. If I make it in the evening, I wait until the next day to dig in... allowing the pie filling to solidify}
- Slice and serve up with big scoops of vanilla ice cream and whip cream on top. ENJOY!
