How To Make A Blueberry Pie
- To make this delicious pie, start off by making the simple crust. I used my favourite pie crust recipe that you can find on my blog.
- Line a pie dish with the crust, as well as cut strips of pastry for latticing the pie later.
- Then make the easy blueberry filling by mixing all the ingredients together.
- Once well combined, pour into the prepared pie dish and spread into an even layer.
- Lattice the top of the pie with the prepared pastry strips.
- Bake the pie and then enjoy! I like serving it with ice-cream, soft whipped cream, or warm custard!
Tips For This Recipe!
- Throughout the process, you want the pie dough to stay as cold as possible as this ensures a flaky crust.
- When adding the blueberry filling to the pie crust, avoid adding too much of the liquid as this can make the pie soggy.
- Let the pie cool fully before slicing.
- This pie can be kept at room temperature for 1 - 2 days. For longer storage, cover and refrigerate the pie. If refrigerated, the blueberry pie will keep for 5 - 7 days.

How Do You Thicken Blueberry Pie Filling?
To thicken a fruit pie, it is best to add some cornstarch or flour to the filling. This will thicken up the juices that the blueberries release when baking. Adding a thickening agent, such as cornstarch, flour, or tapioca, will help you to achieve your desired consistency. This pie recipe uses 6 tablespoons of cornstarch to make the perfect thick but still juicy filling.
