Blueberry Pie Frozen Blueberries Recipe

Blueberry pie is a classic American dessert that is loved by many. This recipe uses frozen blueberries, making it convenient and easy to make any time of the year. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to make a delicious blueberry pie using frozen blueberries.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup sugar

3 tablespoons cornstarch

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

4 cups frozen blueberries

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces

1 double pie crust

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well.

Add the frozen blueberries to the bowl. Make sure the blueberries are completely frozen as this will help prevent them from turning to mush during baking. Gently stir until the blueberries are coated with the dry ingredients.

Add the lemon juice and stir again until all the blueberries are coated evenly.

Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes to allow the blueberries to release their juices. This will help create a thick and juicy filling.

While waiting for the blueberry mixture to sit, prepare the pie crust. You can make your own pie crust from scratch, or use a pre-made one. Place the bottom crust in a 9-inch pie dish.

Once the blueberry mixture has sat for 15 minutes, pour it into the pie crust. Spread the blueberries out evenly.

Dot the top of the blueberries with small pieces of butter. This will add richness and flavor to the filling.

Place the top crust over the blueberries. You can either make a lattice crust or a solid one. If you're making a lattice crust, weave the strips of dough over and under each other to create a lattice pattern.

Trim the edges of the crust to about 1/2 inch and fold the excess under. Use your fingers or a fork to crimp the edges.

Cut a few slits on top of the pie to allow steam to escape during baking.

Bake the pie for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the filling to set and make slicing easier.

Enjoy your delicious blueberry pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
