POLLY'S PERFECT BLUEBERRY PIE

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 (9-inch) pie

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 to 2/3 cup salad oil
3 to 4 tablespoons milk
1 quart fresh blueberries, washed
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3/4 cup sugar
Dash ground cinnamon
Dash freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon lemon juice
4 teaspoons butter

Steps:

  • Crust:
  • Into a 9-inch pie plate, sift together the flour, sugar, and the salt. In a glass measuring cup, whisk together 1/2 cup salad oil and 3 tablespoons milk with a fork. Pour that over the flour mixture in pie plate and mix with a fork until all flour is evenly dampened. If it is still too dry to work with your hands, mix a little more oil with a little milk and add to flour mixture. With your hands press the dough evenly against the bottom and up the sides of the pie pan, allowing the excess to fall on the counter. (This will be the top crumble crust and is about 1/3 of the total crust mixture.) Sweep it into your hand and reserve in a small bowl. Crimp the edges of the bottom crust or use a fork dipped in milk to flatten the crust along the rim.
  • Berry pie filling:
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • To the washed berries add cornstarch, sugar, cinnamon, and freshly grated nutmeg. Stir gently.
  • Place the berry mixture in the bottom crust and sprinkle lemon juice over it. Then with an ordinary teaspoon, place little 1/2 teaspoons soft butter evenly over the top of the berry filling.
  • Crumble the reserved crust on top of the pie.
  • Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Check it after 30 minutes. If crust is getting golden but pie filling is not quite congealed, tent the pie with aluminum foil to keep crust from getting too brown.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream.

2 refrigerated rolled pie crusts (homemade or store-bought)

  • Stir the cooled filling once and pour into the dough-lined pie plate; spread it out into an even layer. Place the pie on the preheated baking sheet, turn the oven down to 375 degrees F and bake until the crust in golden and the edge of the filling is bubbly, 55 to 60 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool. Press the stars into the filling, standing them up slightly. Let cool at least 2 hours before serving.

If you prefer to make an extra-wide lattice-top crust for this blueberry pie, roll out dough to 1/8 inch thick, and cut four 3-inch-wide strips. Chill the strips until firm. Weave the strips over the filling, and seal the lattice to the bottom crust with a mixture of egg and milk in this delicious dessert.

Yield Makes 1 nine-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
Piecrust
1 large egg
1 tablespoon milk
3 pints blueberries, picked over
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out half the dough to 1/8-inch-thick circle, about 13 inches in diameter. Drape dough over a 9-inch pie pan, and transfer to refrigerator to chill for about 30 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Whisk together egg and milk to make egg wash, and set aside. Combine blueberries, lemon juice, sugar, flour, and cinnamon, and turn onto chilled bottom crust. Dot with butter. Roll out the remaining dough to the same size and thickness. Brush the rim of the crust with the egg wash, place the other piece of dough on top, trim to 1/2 inch over edge of pan, and crimp the edges with a fork or your fingers. Transfer the pie to the refrigerator to chill until firm, about 30 minutes. Brush with the egg wash, and bake for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 30 to 40 minutes more or until juices are bubbling. Let cool before serving.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Choose ripe, fresh blueberries: Fresh blueberries have a deep blue color and a plump, firm texture. Avoid berries that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Wash the blueberries thoroughly: Rinse the blueberries under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Use a pastry blender or food processor to cut the butter into the flour: This will create a crumbly mixture that will hold together when you add the water.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Just mix it until it comes together and forms a ball.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out: This will make it easier to handle and less likely to stick.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the pastry dough: A sharp knife will give you clean, even cuts.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust: The filling should come up to the top of the crust, but it shouldn't overflow.
  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven: This will help the crust to brown evenly.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the crust to firm up.

Conclusion:

Blueberry bottom pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy filling and flaky crust, it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give blueberry bottom pie a try!
