Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Press 1 pie crust pastry into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan.
- Stir blueberries, sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Add almond extract; stir to coat. Pour blueberry mixture into the prepared pie crust. Dot the blueberry mixture with butter pieces. Top with second pie crust, crimping the two crusts together. Brush top crust with milk. Make a few incisions with a knife into the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking. Wrap the edges of the pie with aluminum foil to avoid burning.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil, and continue baking until blueberry filling is bubbling and crust is browned, 20 to 25 more minutes. Cool before serving.

Steps:
- Dough:In a bowl, sprinkle yeast and sugar over milk. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Whisk in egg and butter until smooth. Stir in flour and salt. Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface; knead until smooth and tacky but no longer sticky, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl brushed with butter, turning to coat. Cover with a clean kitchen towel; let rise until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours; or refrigerate until doubled in volume, 18 to 48 hours.
- Topping:Combine butter, sugar, flour, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl; massage together with your fingers until combined. Press into bottom of bowl; cover and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 3 days.
- Filling: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Toss apples with sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon. Spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until almost tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in blueberries, salt, lemon juice, and remaining 3 tablespoons flour; roastuntil apples are tender, about 10 minutes more. Let cool 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, punch down dough. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out to a 13-inch round. Transfer to a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie dish. Fold overhang under itself until flush with edge of plate (do not crimp edges). Loosely cover with towel; let stand until puffy and doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
- Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees. Transfer filling to center of dough, gently spreading to sides of dish without compressing dough. Crumble topping into bite-size pieces and sprinkle evenly over filling.
- Bake just until dough begins to brown, about 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; bake until filling bubbles around edges and crust and topping turn golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes more. (If crust or topping are browning too quickly, tent with foil.) Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely, at least 4 hours or, loosely covered, up to 1 day. Slice and serve with ice cream.

Steps:
- To make the pie:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Roll out half the dough 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface, fit it into a 9-inch (1 quart) pie plate, and trim the edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Chill the shell while making the filling. In a large bowl toss together well the blueberries, the cornstarch, 1 cup of the sugar, the lemon juice, the nutmeg, and the salt, mound the filling in the shell, and dot it with the butter.
- Roll out the remaining dough into a 13 to 14-inch round on the lightly floured surface, cut out a 1 1/2-inch star from the middle of the round, and drape the round over the filling. Trim the dough, leaving a 1-inch overhang, fold the overhang under the bottom crust, pressing the edge to seal it, and crimp the edge decoratively. Brush the crust with the half-and-half or milk, cut slits in the top crust around the crust, and sprinkle the pie lightly with the additional sugar. Bake the pie in the bottom third of the oven for 20 minutes, reduce the temperature to 375°F., and bake the pie for 30 to 35 minutes more, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling. Transfer the pie to a rack and let it cool.
- To make the pâte brisée:
- In a large bowl blend the flour, the butter, the vegetable shortening, and the salt until the mixture resembles meal. Add the 2 tablespoons ice water, toss the mixture until the water is incorporated, adding the additional ice water if necessary to form a dough, and form the dough into a ball. Dust the dough with flour and chill it, wrapped in wax paper, for 1 hour.

BLUE RIBBON WILD BLUEBERRY PIE
This is an awesome recipe we made up. It is tried and true. I got this recipe from piemaking in Canada, where we went out blueberry picking. These should be fresh picked wild berries. I think you probably substitute Saskatoon berries, as well. Yummy!

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. Continue adding water until the mix barely comes together. Turn out on a piece of plastic wrap and form into a ball. Wrap tightly in the plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour. FILLING: In a heavy bottomed sauce pan combine 2 cups blueberries, water, sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, lemon juice and vanilla. Cook covered over medium heat for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool. Preheat oven 425°F. Next, roll out pie dough adding flour as needed and press into a 9 inch pie plate. Prick the bottom with a fork. Place a piece of parchment paper over the dough and fill the plate with dried beans (or use pie weights if you have them). Bake for 20 minutes and reduce heat to 350°F. Continue baking 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely. Finally, spread the softened Neufchatel cheese over the pie crust. Mix the remaining 2 cups of blueberries with the cooked berries and pour the filling into the crust. Serve chilled with whipped cream.
Tips:
- Use fresh wild blueberries: Fresh wild blueberries are the best choice for this pie, as they have a more intense flavor and better texture than frozen or store-bought blueberries.
- Make sure the blueberries are well-drained: Before adding the blueberries to the pie, make sure they are well-drained. This will prevent the pie from becoming too watery.
- Use a combination of sugars: Using a combination of granulated sugar and brown sugar will give the pie a more complex flavor.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make it tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
- Chill the dough before rolling it out: Chilling the dough before rolling it out will make it easier to work with and will help prevent the pie from shrinking in the oven.
- Use a pie plate with a removable bottom: This will make it easier to remove the pie from the plate once it is baked.
- Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling: The pie is done baking when the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This usually takes about 45-50 minutes.
Conclusion:
This wild blueberry pie is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. Whether you like your pie tart or sweet, with a flaky crust or a crumbly topping, this recipe has you covered.
