Easy Blueberry Pie Recipe

Statistics show that blueberry pie is one of the US and Canada's favorite pies (apple pie is THE all time favorite).

Blueberries grow wild here and it used to be that you could only get them if you lived nearby.

Now, with the advent of global agriculture, these wonderful little blue gems are available to us year round, so we can enjoy a homemade pie made with fresh blueberries any time of the year.

You can also use frozen blueberries for the pie.

Just substitute an equal amount of frozen berries for the fresh.

Easy Blueberry Pie Recipe

4 cups fresh blueberries
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Pastry for double-crust 9 inch pie
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 dash ground cloves
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon water

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Place the blueberries in a bowl and sprinkle them with lemon juice.

Roll half of the crust to about 1/8" in thickness and fit it into a 9" pie plate.

Combine the sugar, flour and spices and stir well. Add the flour mixture to the berries, stirring well to mix it all in. Pour the berry mixture into the pastry lined pie plate. Dot the filling with butter.

Roll out the remaining crust to 1/8" thickness. Cover the pie with the crust. Trim the pastry around the edge of the pie pan. Seal and flute the edges. Cut slits in the crust top for steam to escape. Combine the egg yolk and water. Lightly brush the pastry top with the egg mixture.

Bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown. Cool before serving.

Great served with a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream.

Makes 6 to 8 servings.
