Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 6 tablespoons Ice water
- 5 cups Fresh blueberries
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar (for filling)
- 0.25 cup Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (optional, for dotting filling)
- 1 Egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon Coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing just until the dough comes together.
Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
In another large bowl, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Stir gently to coat the blueberries. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
On a floured surface, roll out one chilled dough disk into a 12-inch circle. Fit it into a 10-inch pie dish, leaving a slight overhang.
Pour the blueberry filling into the prepared pie crust. Dot the filling with the optional butter if desired.
Roll out the second dough disk into a 12-inch circle. Place it over the filling, or cut it into strips and create a lattice top. Trim and crimp the edges to seal.
Brush the top crust or lattice with the beaten egg, and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, and bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Allow the pie to cool completely on a wire rack before serving, about 2-3 hours, to let the filling set.
Serve and enjoy your homemade 10-inch blueberry pie!
