Yield Makes 2 pies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 recipe Pate Brisee for Old-Fashioned Blueberry Pie
6 pints fresh blueberries
2 cups plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 large egg beaten with 1 teaspoon water, for glaze

Steps:

  • Line two 9-inch pie tins with dough and chill thoroughly. Roll out 2 circles of dough at least 10 inches in diameter, and chill on a cookie sheet.
  • In a large bowl, combine berries, 2 cups sugar, flour, and lemon zest and juice.
  • Fill chilled shells with berry mixture. Lay pastry circles on a lightly floured board and cut a star out of each center with a cookie cutter or by hand.
  • Brush edges of bottom shell lightly with glaze and top with pastry circle, centering the star. Trim overhanging pastry to within 3/4 inch and crimp edges together to seal. Chill pies for 30 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Brush pies with the remaining egg glaze and sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake 50 to 60 minutes, or until juices are bubbling and crust is golden brown.

I've been making this blueberry pie for years, and it's always a hit. The secret is in the crust. I use a combination of butter and shortening, which makes it extra flaky.

This pie was a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the filling was too tart.

The blueberry filling is delicious, but the crust was a bit too dry for my taste. I'll try using a different crust recipe next time.

I'm not a huge fan of blueberry pie, but this recipe changed my mind. The filling is sweet and tangy, and the crust is perfectly flaky.
