Ingredients

Filling

  • 6 Cups Fresh Blueberries
  • ½ Cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 7 Tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 Lemon Zest & Juice
  • 1 Egg lightly beaten for egg wash
  • 1 Tablespoon Water for egg wash
  • pinch Salt for egg wash

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 °F (204 °C).
  • Line the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan with pie dough. Place the pan in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
    1 Double Crust Pie Dough
  • To make the filling, mix the blueberries, brown sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest and lemon juice together in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.
    6 Cups Fresh Blueberries, ½ Cup Light Brown Sugar, 7 Tablespoon Cornstarch, 1 Lemon
  • Add the filling to the pie crust. Leave any juices in the bowl.
  • Use the second half of your pie dough to make a top crust. You can either do a lattice as I have done or use a solid crust. If you use a solid top, be sure to cut a few vent holes in the center.
  • Combine the egg, water and pinch of salt in a small bowl. Beat well. Brush the egg wash over the crust.
    1 Egg, 1 Tablespoon Water, pinch Salt
  • Place the pie on a baking sheet (to avoid any oven messes) and bake on the bottom rack of the preheated oven for 1 hour. The juices should be very bubbly and the crust golden brown.

Notes

  • 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.
