Ingredients
  • Crust
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 1/2 tsp sugar
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup ice cold water
  • Pie Filling
  • 3/4 cup cane sugar
  • 3 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp grated nutmeg
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp of lemon juice
  • 3 pints fresh blueberries
Instructions
  1. Pie Crust
  2. In a food processor add butter, flour, salt, and sugar. Pulse the mixture until it comes to a sand consistency. Slowly pour the ice cold water as you continue to pulse the food processor, until a dough is formed. Separate the dough into 2 even balls and press them out into disks, wrap them individually in plastic, and refrigerate for an hour.
  3. Pie filling
  4. Mix the sugar, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, lemon zest, and nutmeg. Pour the sugar mixture over the blueberries in a large bowl, and coat the blueberries with the mix. Add the lemon juice. Prepare the pie crust by rolling out one disk, use flour to ensure that the dough doesn’t stick to the surface that you are using to roll it out. Place the rolled out dough into a pie plate (I used a glass plate) add the blueberry mixture to the pie plate, roll out the second crust and place over the fruit filling. Cut vents into the pie crust to allow steam to evacuate.
