Time 4h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 refrigerated rolled pie crusts (homemade or store-bought)
3/4 cup sugar
6 cups blueberries
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Adjust 2 racks to the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Put a baking sheet or pizza stone on the bottom rack.
  • Combine the sugar with 4 cups of the blueberries in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, crushing up the berries with a wooden spoon to release their juices, and cook, stirring occasionally, until thick and reduced by half, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the flour and the remaining 2 cups blueberries. Transfer to a bowl and cool completely, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, fit one of the pie crusts into a 9-inch pie plate and fold and crimp the edges as desired. Refrigerate while you wait for the filling to cool.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment. Cut out as many stars as you can from the second pie crust. Arrange on the baking sheet. Bake on the upper rack until golden, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Stir the cooled filling once and pour into the dough-lined pie plate; spread it out into an even layer. Place the pie on the preheated baking sheet, turn the oven down to 375 degrees F and bake until the crust in golden and the edge of the filling is bubbly, 55 to 60 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool. Press the stars into the filling, standing them up slightly. Let cool at least 2 hours before serving.

small bowl of ice water plus 1 teaspoon white vinegar

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 ounces softened Neufchatel cheese
Garnish
Whipped sweet cream

Steps:

  • CRUST: Measure the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Add the cubed butter and mix with a pastry blender until it resembles coarse crumbles. Add the ice cold vinegar water by teaspoon and mix.

Mix the remaining 2 cups of blueberries with the cooked berries and pour the filling into the crust. Serve chilled with whipped cream.

WILD BLUEBERRY AND LEMON MERINGUE PIE RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Wild Blueberry and Lemon Meringue Pie Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by á-177220

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 cups plain flour
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter or margarine, cold, diced
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
3 cups lemon curd
3 egg whites
2/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup frozen wild blueberries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9-inch flan tin and set aside. Measure the flour, cold butter, and sugar into a food processor and pulse until mixture resembles fresh breadcrumbs. Add the egg and pulse to form cohesive dough. Roll pastry out onto a floured surface and line the flan tin. Line the inside of the pastry with a circle of tissue paper, crumpled. Fill with baking beans or rice grains and part bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Lift out paper and beans and allow to cool completely. Spread lemon curd into part baked flan case once cooled completely. Whisk the egg whites in a machine mixer until full volume. Add the sugar and continue whisking until firm. Quickly fold in the frozen wild blueberries, turn out onto the filled flan case and bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool completely before cutting.

Tips:

  • Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh blueberries, frozen blueberries will also work, but they may not be as sweet.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites. If you overbeat them, they will become dry and stiff, and the meringue will not be as light and fluffy.
  • Bake the pie until the meringue is golden brown. If the meringue is not browned, it will be too soft and will not hold its shape.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the meringue to set and the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

This 4-ingredient blueberry meringue pie is an easy and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of the sweet blueberries, the fluffy meringue, and the flaky crust is irresistible. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a pie that will impress your family and friends.
