How to Make the Pie Dough

  1. Cut the butter into the flour using either a pastry cutter or two forks, until you reach a crumbly texture.
  2. Then simply drizzle in water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough can be formed into a loose ball.
  3. Divide it into two equal balls and pat into disk shapes. Wrap in plastic wrap, and set in the fridge to firm up for at least an hour.

How to Make Blueberry Pie Filling

  1. Mix together blueberries, cornstarch, sugar, lemon zest, cinnamon, and salt.

How to Make Blueberry Pie

  1. Once your dough has chilled, preheat the oven. Roll the disks out into large circles so that they’re about ½ inch larger than your pie pan.
  2. Use one of the doughs as your bottom crust. Line the bottom of your pie pan and cut the other dough into 1 inch thick strips.
  1. Add your blueberry pie filling to the pie dish, then make your woven lattice pie crust on top! To do this, I like to lay a row of dough strips going one direction (horizontal).
  2. Fold half of the strips over, then lay a strip going the other direction (vertical).
  3. Lay the horizontal strips over the vertical strips. Fold the other half of the strips to repeat, weaving the dough strips to form a lattice pie topping.

Expert Tips & FAQs

What can I use instead of a pastry cutter?

If you don’t have a pastry cutter, you can use two butter knifes scissor style to cut the butter into the dry ingredients.

Can I use frozen blueberries?

You can use frozen blueberries for this pie, but don’t thaw them. Do not make the blueberry filling until you are ready to put it into the pie crust.

Can I use pre-made crust?

You can use tubes or sheets of refrigerated pie dough. Just follow the instructions on the package.

The hardest part of making this recipe is waiting for the pie to cool long enough to cut it. Enjoy!
