Categories     Berry     Pie     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 pints washed fresh blueberries
1/3 to 1/2 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 beaten egg
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Roll out half of the dough into a circle large enough to fit a 2 inch deep 11 inch tart pan. Line the pan and refrigerate.
  • Roll out the remaining pastry to a thickness of 1/8 inch and cut out leaf shapes. Transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet and refrigerate.
  • Put blueberries in a large bowl and sprinkle with the flour, one cup of sugar and the butter.
  • Toss so the berries are completely covered.
  • Brush the entire pastry crust (edges and bottom) with the egg wash (egg and heavy cream) and pour the blueberries into the shell.
  • Decoratively arrange the leaves on top of the fruit, covering it almost completely. Brush the leaves with the egg wash and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of sugar.
  • Bake the pie for 50 minutes or until the blueberry juices have bubbled and thickened.
  • Let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting.
