BLUEBERRY PIE WITH GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST AND CRUMB TOPPING
I've been making this blueberry pie for a few years now, it's wonderful. You can also substitute other berries for the blueberries!
Provided by Amy Freeman
Categories Pies
Time 1h25m
Number Of Ingredients 16
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)

CHOCOLATE CHESS PIE WITH GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST RECIPE - (4.3/5)
Provided by á-43062
Number Of Ingredients 18
Steps:
- Note on the pie: if you're using a 9" standard pie plate it will be a very full pie. Bake it on a cookie sheet just in case, but it should not spill over. You can use up to a 10" pie plate, but do not use anything smaller than 9". If you have a 9" deep dish pie plate, you can use that as well. CRUST: Preheat oven to 350°F. Grind the graham crackers in a food processor until they are a fine crumb. (You can also place them in a large gallon size ziploc bag and roll them with a rolling pin.) Place in a bowl and stir in sugar and melted butter with a fork. Press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-10" or 9" deep dish pie plate. Bake until firm, about 10 minutes. FILLING: Melt the butter with chocolate in a medium sized bowl. I did this in the microwave, heating on high in 30 second increments, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. (You can also do it in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water.) Once the chocolate is melted and smooth, whisk in the flour, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Whisk in eggs and egg white, one at a time, until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the chopped peanut butter cups, if using. Pour mixture into prepared crust. Bake until the top is puffed and filling is set in the center, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool, serve at room temperature. While the pie is baking, make the chocolate whipped cream. Start with cold bowl and beaters. Place the whipping cream in a bowl and beat on high until the mixture thickens. Slowly add the powdered sugar, vanilla and unsweetened cocoa powder. Continue beating until stiff peaks form. Be careful to not over beat. Best served on day it's made. Top with whipped cream or ice cream. (Note that I get pretty slices because I chill my pies a few hours before cutting. That's the secret to perfect slices!) NOTES: I added the peanut butter cups because I love the combination of PB and chocolate. If you don't like peanut butter or are allergic, just skip them. The pie will cook just fine without them! You can also add in some of your favorite chopped candy in it's place.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons of white sugar, and melted butter together in a bowl. Reserve a couple tablespoons of the cracker mixture to use as garnish. Press the remaining cracker mixture into a 9-inch pie plate to form a crust.
- Place 1/2 cup of sugar, cornstarch, and salt in the top of a double boiler over just-barely simmering water. Slowly stir in the scalded milk, stirring until mixture thickens. Slowly whisk 1/3 of the milk mixture into the beaten egg yolks, then pour the egg mixture back into the double boiler. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly so as not to scramble the eggs. Remove from heat, and cool slightly, then stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, until butter is melted. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared pie shell. Set aside.
- Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Gradually add 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites should form a sharp peak that holds its shape. Spread the meringue over the pie.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the meringue is lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Cool, and sprinkle with the reserved graham cracker mixture before serving.

Steps:
- 1. For crust: Preheat oven to 325 degree F. Melt butter, add to crumbs, sugar and cinnamon. Mix until thoroughly blended. Press into a 9 inch or 9 1/2 inch pie plate ( which is what I used ) I use a cup to press on the bottom and my fingers to press sides firmly.
- 2. Bake for 10 minutes and then cool completely.
- 3. While crust cools, make filling. In a medium saucepan, over med heat, whisk together, yolks, sugar, milk, cream, vanilla, butter and salt. Whisk constantly until thickens. Lower heat and continue cooking for another seven minutes.
- 4. Pour into prepared crust. Cover filling with plastic wrap, so the top of pudding doesn't form a skin. Chill several hours or until set enough to cut.
- 5. I run about an inch of hot water in sink and set cold pie in the water, holding around edges for a few seconds to make easier to cut and remove crumb crust easily. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs!
Tips:
- Use a food processor to make the graham cracker crumbs. This will ensure that the crumbs are evenly sized and will help the crust to hold together better.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the graham crackers in a resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin.
- Make sure the butter is cold before you add it to the graham cracker crumbs. This will help the crust to be more firm.
- Press the crust into the pie plate firmly. This will help to prevent the crust from cracking.
- Chill the crust for at least 30 minutes before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
- Make sure the filling is completely cool before you pour it into the crust. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
- Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
- Garnish the pie with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.
Conclusion:
Graham cracker pie is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy filling and crunchy crust, this pie is sure to be a hit at your next gathering. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give this graham cracker pie a try!
