Blueberry pie
- 2 Pie Crusts (no blind bake)
- Filling
- 860 g Fresh or Frozen Blueberries
- 135 g Granulated Sugar
- 30 g All-Purpose Flour
- 22 g Cornstarch
- 1/4 t Cinnamon, ground
- 1 Lemon, zested and juiced
- 1 T Unsalted Butter, cold, cubed
- Egg Wash
- 1 Egg, beaten
- 1 T Milk
- Coarse Sugar, for topping
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Foil a baking sheet on the bottom rack to catch drippings.
- Mix filling. Combine blueberries, sugar, flour, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon juice, and zest. Mix until moistened, bursting some berries as needed.
- Assemble. Roll one dough disc to a 12-inch circle and place in a 9-inch pie dish. Pour filling evenly into crust. Dot with butter.
- Top with lattice. Roll second dough disc to 12 inches and cut into 1-inch strips. Weave strips in a lattice pattern over filling. Press edges to seal, trim excess, and flute edges.
- Apply egg wash. Brush egg wash over crust. Sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake 25 minutes at 425°F, then reduce heat to 375°F (190°C). Shield edges and continue baking 40-50 minutes (60-90 if using frozen blueberries) until filling bubbles throughout and internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
- Cool on a wire rack at least 4 hours before slicing.
The filling can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance and refrigerated.
Store covered in the refrigerator up to 5 days.
