Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup butter, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup milk
2 pints fresh blueberries
½ cup white sugar, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Beat 3/4 cup sugar with the butter until the mixture is smooth and creamy, and beat in the egg. Add the baking powder, and stir in the flour, 1/2 cup at a time, alternating with a few tablespoons of the milk, until all the flour and milk have been incorporated. The dough will be sticky, like sugar cookie dough. Spread the dough into the prepared baking dish, creating a raised edge of dough around the dish.
  • Place the blueberries in a bowl with 1/2 cup of sugar, and mash the berries with a potato masher. Spread the blueberry mixture on top of the crust in an even layer.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the crust has browned slightly and the filling is thickened and bubbling, 15 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh blueberries. If you are using frozen blueberries, thaw them and drain them before using.
  • To make sure the pie crust is flaky, use cold butter and ice water. Don't overwork the dough, or it will be tough.
  • To prevent the pie filling from bubbling over, cut a few slits in the top crust before baking.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will help the filling to set.

Conclusion:

Finnish blueberry pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
