The Best Blueberry Pie

What is better than having a slice of the Best Blueberry Pie on a summer’s day? Even better, you can enjoy this pie all year long by using frozen blueberries when blueberries aren’t in season.

Our quick and easy Blueberry Pie is great served alone or with a generous topping of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. The best part – this is one of the easiest and healthiest pies to make. We use minimal ingredients, allowing the taste of the blueberries to take center stage in this refreshing dessert.

Fun fact – we love this pie so much that we made it the day before vacation. We weren’t quite finished enjoying it, so we ate it for breakfast the morning we left for the trip. Everything in moderation, right?

1. Bake your pie crust to the desired doneness following package instructions. Prior to baking, prick the base of your pie crust several times with a fork to prevent air bubbles from forming.

3. Remove the mixture from the heat. Add the remaining 2 cups of Blueberries. Stir to combine. 
4. Pour the Blueberry mixture into the pie crust and refrigerate until the pie is set, at least one hour.
