HOW TO MAKE A BLUEBERRY PIE RECIPE, STEP BY STEP:

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place a sheet tray on the lower rack in the oven. Gently place one of the pie crusts into a 9inchx2inch deep pie plate with the crust overlapping the sides. Place into the refrigerator with the other crust until ready to assemble.
In a large bowl, stir together the blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and sea salt until coated, set aside.
Roll out the second crust onto a clean work surface. Cut the crust into 1-inch strips, I like to use a ruler to help make straight lines. Set aside.
Take the pie plate out of the refrigerator and fill it with the blueberry filling.
Dot with the butter if using.
Take 5 of the pie crust strips and lay them out parallel to each other with a small gap on top of the pie. You want to use the longer strips in the center of the pie and the shorter ones towards the edge.
Take every other strip and fold it up over itself so the filling is exposed under those pieces.
Lay 1 strip of pie crust on top. Fold the strips back over so you now have part of a weave. Do this process again but with the remaining strips. Repeat until the entire pie has lattice. Refer to the tutorial for detailed visual instructions.
Tuck the edges of the strips under the edge of the bottom pie crust. Crimp the edges around the entire pie.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg with the milk. Brush this mixture over the exposed pie crust. Sprinkle the sugar on top of the crust.
Bake for 20 minutes at 400*F. At the 20 minute mark, add a foil tent over the pie and lower the heat to 350°F. Continue to bake for 35-45 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Let sit out at room temperature for 3-4 hours until the filling has set. Serve as is or with your favorite toppings.

Do not let this Blueberry Pie intimidate you! It is really easy, once you get used to the weaving of the lattice topping you will be a pro in no time!

CAN I USE FROZEN BLUEBERRIES?

Yes you can use frozen blueberries if you wish. You can thaw them but you do not need to, you will however have to bake your pie a little longer to make sure the blueberries are not cold.

We personally prefer fresh blueberries for our Blueberry Pie Recipe, but if you can not find fresh blueberries you can use frozen.

WHY IS MY PIE SOUPY?

There are two reasons that your pie can become soupy. One is that you haven’t baked it long enough, you need to make sure that the pie is baked through.

The second reason would be is that you did not let your pie sit out and set up before slicing. The pie itself will have juices but it will mostly hold its shape when cut.

You will need to let your pie sit out 3-4 hours to cool and set up so the thickeners in the pie will take the liquid from the pie itself and turn it into a more solid form.

HOW DO I KNOW WHEN MY PIE IS DONE?

Your pie will be done when the crust is golden on top and you can see the filling bubbling around the edges and in the center of the pie. You do not want your pie to not be golden.

We do tent this recipe so it does not turn too brown too fast, we do this because of the length the pie bakes and you want an even browning around the whole pie.

DO I NEED TO DO A LATTICE TOPPING?

If you do not want to attempt a lattice topping you do not have to. You can layer the top pie crust over the filling and crimp the edges, you will want to cut slits in the middle of the pie for it to vent.

You will also still want to brush the whole pie with the egg wash so it will brown nicely and add the decorators sugar if you desire.

HOW TO STORE:

To store this Blueberry Pie Recipe you will want to let it cool as directed and keep any remaining pieces in the pie pan. Cover loosely with foil or plastic wrap and it should keep refrigerated up to 5 days.

This can also be frozen, to do this let your pie cool fully and then wrap tightly with foil or plastic wrap then place in a freezer bag. Place in your freezer and it should keep for up to 4 months.

To defrost, remove to your refrigerator and let sit overnight before serving.

TIPS AND TRICKS:

You can use refrigerated pie crust or your own homemade pie crust.
Frozen blueberries can be swapped out in a pinch, we prefer to use fresh.
This needs to sit at room temperature for 3-4 hours for the filling to set up.
You do not have to lattice your top if you do not want to, see my tips above on an alternative.
This pie can be frozen, see above on how to do that.
Serve with your favorite toppings such as whipped cream or ice cream.
