Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 16

PIE CRUST
1 1/2 c graham cracker crumbs
1/2 c melted butter
1/8 c water
PIE FILLING
3-4 c fresh or frozen blueberries (without syrup)
7 Tbsp cornstarch
3 Tbsp water
4 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp allspice
2/3 c sugar
TOPPING
1/4 c sugar
1/2 c flour
1/4 c butter (softened)

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 375.
  • 2. Graham Cracker Crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs, one stick of butter and water. Press into pie plate and refrigerate for 1 hour (to prevent crumbling when serving)
  • 3. Rinse blueberries. Pick out and remove any bits of stems, leaves and soft or mushy berries. It is easiest to do this in a large bowl of water and gently run your hands through the berries as they float. With your fingers slightly apart, you will easily feel any soft or mushy berries get caught in your fingers.
  • 4. Combine the 2/3 cup sugar, 7 Tablespoons of corn starch in a bowl and mix well! stir in either 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and/or 1/4 teaspoon of allspice, mixed in (optional)
  • 5. Add the 2 Tablespoons of lemon juice, and 3 Tablespoons of water (or grape juice) and stir it up.
  • 6. Pour blueberries into pie crust. There's lots of air space and it will cook down, so don't worry if they mound up about an inch (2.5 cm) above the edge of the plate.
  • 7. pour the mixture of sugar, juice, etc. into the pie all over the blueberries. If it is a gloppy liquid, don't worry, just pour it somewhat evenly over the top. But it doesn't take perfection; it will smooth itself out in the oven.
  • 8. Crumb Topping: 1/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup flour 1/4 cup butter Mix together in a small bowl and sprinkle it over the pie.
  • 9. Bake 375F for 1 hour or until golden brown and filling is bubbly. Will keep 1 week in the frige (if it lasts that long)

Tips:

  • Use fresh blueberries. Fresh blueberries have the best flavor and texture for this pie. If you can't find fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries, but thaw them completely before using.
  • Make sure your pie crust is well-chilled before baking. This will help to prevent the crust from shrinking or becoming soggy.
  • Don't over-mix the filling. Over-mixing will make the filling tough. Just stir until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie until the filling is bubbling and the crust is golden brown. This usually takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will give the filling time to set and the flavors to meld.
