Homemade Blueberry Pie From Scratch

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 6 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 large lemon

  (zested and juiced, or use 2-3 tablespoons lemon juice)
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 pinch salt
• 6 cups blueberries

  (fresh or frozen, thawed )
• 2 tablespoon butter

  (cubed)
• 1 9" butter pie crust

  (see recipe, or use store-bought crust)

Instructions

• 1 To begin, preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C/Gas Mark 6) and zest the lemon.
• 2 While the oven has preheats, grab a large mixing bowl and mix together the 1 cup
  sugar, 6 tablespoon cornstarch, 1 large lemon zest & juice, ½ teaspoon ground
  cinnamon, and 1 pinch salt. Then gently fold in your 6 cups blueberries until
  combined.
• 3 Roll and place half of the crust into your pie plate (reserving the other half
  to top the pie). Fill the crust with your blueberry mixture and dot with the
  cubed butter.
• 4 Top with the remaining crust. Cut 4 or 5 slits in the pie crust to allow steam
  to escape OR cut the top half of your crust into 1-inch strips and create a
  lattice by weaving them across your pie.
• 5 Place your pie on a baking sheet to catch any messy drippings then transfer to
  the center rack and bake at 400°F (205°C/Gas Mark 6) for 45-55 minutes.
• 6 Your pie is done when the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly. Remove it
  from the oven then allow to cool at room temperature for 2 hours before serving.
