Ingredients

Servings

• 4 cup Blueberries
• ³⁄₄ cup Granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• 2 ¹⁄₂ cup All-purpose flour
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoon Ice water
• 1 beaten Egg
• 1 tablespoon Turbinado sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and salt. Toss until the blueberries are well coated.
3. In a separate bowl, mix all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add ice water gradually and mix until the dough comes together.
4. Divide the dough into two portions, one slightly larger than the other. Roll out the larger portion to fit the pie dish and transfer it.
5. Pour the blueberry mixture into the pie crust. Roll out the remaining dough and cut into strips for lattice design or cover the pie completely.
6. Brush the top crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
8. Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before serving.
