Time 1h55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 cups flour, plus extra for dusting
Pinch of salt
1 stick butter, cut into small cubes and frozen
1/4 cup ice water
16 ounces fresh blueberries
2 Golden Delicious apples, cored, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
Pinch of salt
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small cubes
1 egg
2 tablespoons turbinado sugar
Special equipment: 9-inch pie pan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the crust: In a food processor, add the flour and a nice pinch of salt. Pulse very lightly just to blend. Add the butter evenly around the flour and quickly pulse until the flour resembles small crumbles. Slowly pour the water through the spout until the dough begins to come together. Remove and quickly form into a disc. Tightly cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, for the filling: In a large bowl, add the blueberries, apples, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine and set aside.
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place on a lightly floured surface. Gently roll the disc into a circle big enough to fit into the pie pan and leave a 3-inch overhang. The dough should be about 1/8-inch thick. Using a pizza cutter, trim the edges of the dough. Place the dough into the pie pan and press gently against the bottom and sides to fit the dough into the pan. Pour in the fruit filling, and then scatter the butter evenly around the top of the pie. Fold the extra dough that's hanging off the edge over the top to create the top of the pie crust. Leave a hole in the center for ventilation.
  • Whisk the egg with 1 teaspoon water and brush the top with egg wash and then sprinkle with the sugar.
  • Place in the oven and bake until the crust is golden brown, about 35 minutes. Let the pie rest at least an hour before serving to let the filling set.

I love this pie! It's so easy to make and it's always delicious. I've made it with both fresh and frozen blueberries and it's always turned out great. I highly recommend this recipe.

I made this pie for a potluck and it was a big hit. The only thing I changed was that I used a graham cracker crumb curst instead of a regular pie curst. The pie was delicious and I will definitely make it again.

I made this pie for a church potluck and it was a big hit. The only change I made to the recipe was to use a pre-made pie curst. The pie was delicious and I will definitely make it again.

This pie is very easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. I usually use frozen blueberries, and I've also tried using other fruits, such as raspberries and blackberries.

This pie was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time. Otherwise, it was a very good pie.

I made this pie for my son's birthday and he loved it. It is a very rich pie, so a little goes a long way. I would recommend serving it with some whipped cream or ice cream.
