Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Blueberries
- 2 large Bananas
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 sheets Prepared pie crust
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out one sheet of prepared pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon. Gently toss until the blueberries are evenly coated.
Slice the bananas into thin rounds and layer them evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
Pour the blueberry mixture over the banana layer, spreading it out evenly.
Dot the filling with small pieces of butter to enhance the flavor and create a silky texture.
Roll out the second sheet of pie crust and place it over the filling. Trim any excess and crimp the edges to seal. Optionally, cut slits or create a decorative pattern to allow steam to escape during baking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to create an egg wash. Brush the top pie crust with the egg wash for a golden, glossy finish.
Place the pie on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling bubbles.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving. This helps the filling set and makes slicing easier.
Serve the pie as-is, or top with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence. Enjoy!
