This is so easy and it makes a wonderful blueberry pie, this filling freezes wonderful and will makes enough for one 9-inch pie, the filling also makes a great topping for cakes and cheesecakes --- you may make the filling up to step 4 and then freeze in a plastic container, if you are doubling the recipe prepare two separate recipes and make in two saucepans, I do not recommend to double into one.
