Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pkg refrigerated pie crusts for a double crust 9-inch pie (Pillsbury)
1 c white granulated sugar
1/3 c all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
4 c fresh blueberries (2 pints), rinsed, dried, and stems removed
2 Tbsp butter or margarine
milk
additional sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line 9-inch pie pan with half of pastry (1 crust). Set aside.
  • 2. In a large bowl, combine sugar and flour.
  • 3. Add blueberries and lemon juice. Gently toss to coat thoroughly.
  • 4. Spoon blueberry mixture into pastry-lined pie pan. Distribute sugar and flour mixture evenly over berries as this has a tendency to settle in the bottom of the bowl.
  • 5. Dot with butter.
  • 6. Cut second pie crust into strips to create a lattice. Top pie with lattice following directions on pastry package.
  • 7. Trim and flute edge's as desired.
  • 8. With a pastry brush, brush the top of the pastry with milk and sprinkle with sugar.
  • 9. To prevent over-browning, cover the edge of crust with strips of foil or use a pie crust shield.
  • 10. Bake 25 minutes.
  • 11. Remove foil from edges (or pie crust shield). Bake an additional 25-30 minutes or until top is golden brown.
  • 12. Serve warm or cool. Great served warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
