BLUEBERRY PIE



Blueberry Pie image

Blueberry pie is a perfect summer dessert. Yes, it's pie; but blueberries are one of the healthiest foods around, and they require no pitting or peeling.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 9

All-purpose flour, for dusting
Pate Brisee
8 cups (about 4 pints) blueberries, picked over
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon heavy cream

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured piece of parchment paper, roll out one disk of dough to a 12-inch round. With a dry pastry brush, sweep off excess flour; fit dough into a 9-inch glass pie plate, pressing it into edges. Trim dough to a 1/2-inch overhang all around. Fold edge of dough over or under, and crimp as desired. Roll out remaining dough in the same manner; transfer dough (on parchment) to a baking sheet. Chill pie shell and dough until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Place blueberries in a large bowl; with your hands, crush about 1/2 cup of berries, letting them fall into the bowl as you work. Add sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice; stir to combine. Spoon mixture into chilled pie shell, mounding berries slightly in the center. Dot with butter. Remove dough from refrigerator, and place over blueberry filling. Tuck edge of top dough between edge of bottom dough and rim of pan. Using your fingers, gently press both layers of dough along the edge to seal, and crimp as desired.
  • Using a paring knife, cut several vents in top of dough to allow steam to escape. In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk and cream. Brush surface with egg wash, being careful not to let it pool. Freeze or refrigerate pie until firm, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees, with rack in lower third.
  • Place pie on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until crust begins to turn golden, about 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue baking, rotating sheet halfway through, until crust is deep golden brown and juices are bubbling and have thickened, 40 to 50 minutes more. Transfer pie to a wire rack to cool completely. The pie is best eaten the day it is baked, but it can be kept at room temperature, loosely covered with plastic wrap, for up to 2 days.

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

Basic Flaky Pie Crust for a 9-inch pie
1 tablespoon egg white, lightly beaten
4 cups blueberries, rinsed and dried
1/2 liquid cup and two tablespoons water, divided
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups whipped cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the crust:
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator. If necessary, allow it to sit for about 10 minutes or until it is soft enough to roll.
  • Using a pastry cloth and sleeve rubbed with flour or two sheets of plastic wrap lightly sprinkled with flour, roll the dough 1/8 inch thick or less and large enough to cut a 13-inch circle. Use an expandable flan ring or a cardboard template and a sharp knife as a guide to cut out the circle. Transfer the dough to the pie pan, fold under the excess, and crimp the border using a fork or your fingers. Cover it loosely and refrigerate it for a minimum of 1 hour and a maximum of 24 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F at least 20 minutes before baking.
  • Line the pastry with parchment, pleating it as necessary so it fits into the pan, and fill it with rice or dried beans. Bake for 20 minutes. Carefully lift out the rice or beans with the parchment. With a fork, prick the bottom and sides, and bake 5-10 minutes, or until the crust is pale golden. Check after 3 minutes and prick any bubbles that may have formed.
  • Cool the crust on a rack for 3 minutes, so it is no longer piping hot, then brush the bottom and sides with the egg white.
  • Make the filling:
  • Measure out 1 cup of the blueberries, choosing he softest ones. Place them in a medium saucepan together with the 1/2 cup water. Cover and bring them to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and the remaining 2 tablespoons of water. Set it aside.
  • When the water and blueberries have come to a boil, lower the heat and simmer, stirring constantly for 3 to 4 minutes or until the blueberries start to burst and the juices begin to thicken. Stirring constantly, add the cornstarch mixture, the sugar, lemon juice, and salt. Simmer for a minute or until the mixture becomes translucent. Immediately remove it from the heat and quickly fold in the remaining 3 cups of blueberries.
  • Spoon the mixture into the baked pie shell and allow to sit at room temperature for at least 2 hours before serving. When set, the berries will remain very juicy but will not flow out of the crust.
  • Just before serving, if desired, pipe or spread the whipped cream around the sides of the pie, leaving the center unadorned and brilliantly glistening.
  • Store:
  • Room temperature, up to 2 days (without the whipped cream).

FRESH BLUEBERRY PIE

Categories     dessert

Time 3h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cups (20 ounces) fresh blueberries, washed and dried
1/2 cup sugar, plus extra for sprinkling
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
1 tablespoon Cassis liqueur
Perfect Pie Crusts
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon milk or cream, for egg wash
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) very cold unsalted butter
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup very cold vegetable shortening, such as Crisco, diced
1/2 cup ice water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Mix the blueberries, 1/2 cup of sugar, the flour, lemon zest, lemon juice and Cassis in a large bowl. Carefully ease one pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate, making sure not to stretch the dough or it will shrink as the pie bakes. With a sharp knife, cut the excess dough off at the edge of the pie plate. Spoon the blueberry mixture into the pie shell, scraping the bowl with a rubber spatula to be sure you include all the juices.
  • Brush the edge of the crust with the egg wash. Carefully lay the second crust on top, again easing - not stretching - it onto the pie. Cut the excess dough off at the edge of the pie plate. Press the edges together with a dinner fork or crimp with your fingers. Brush the top crust with the egg wash, cut three slits for steam to escape and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Place the pie on the prepared sheet pan and bake in the middle of the oven for 45 to 50 minutes, until the filling is very bubbly and the crust is nicely browned. Allow to cool and serve warm or at room temperature.
  • Cut the butter in 1/2-inch dice and return it to the refrigerator while you prepare the flour mixture. Place the flour, sugar and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and shortening and pulse 10 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of peas. With the machine running, pour the ice water down the feed tube and pulse the machine until the dough begins to form a ball. Dump the dough out on a floured board and turn it into a ball. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Cut the dough in half. Roll each piece out on a well-floured board into a 12- to 13-inch circle, rolling from the center to the edge, turning and flouring the dough to make sure it doesn't stick to the board.

  • Cut the dough in half. Roll each piece on a well-floured board into a circle at least 1 inch larger than the pie pan, rolling from the center to the edge, turning and flouring the dough so it doesnt stick to the board. (You should see bits of butter in the dough.) Fold the dough in half, ease it into the pie pan without stretching at all, and unfold to fit the pan. With a small sharp paring knife, cut the dough 1 inch larger around than the pan. Fold the edge under and crimp the edge with either your fingers or the tines of a fork.

FAMOUS FRESH BLUEBERRY PIE



Famous Fresh Blueberry Pie image

I live in Florida and it is difficult to make a non-runny blueberry pie due to the humidity, but this recipe is perfect. I got this recipe through trial and error of 5 different published recipes. The filling is dense enough so that little loose liquid is present, but you still feel like you are biting into whole berries when you eat it. This fixed my problem of getting a pool of liquid in the bottom of my pie shell. I recommend using only fresh blueberries. Use a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Regarding the crust, the store-bought frozen crusts did not work properly for me. They either didn't bake on the bottom or resulted in an overflow of pie liquid into the bottom of my oven. I recommend the Pillsbury brand rolled pie crust dough found in the refrigerator section of the grocery store (by the biscuits/crescent rolls). These bake nicely, are easy to work with, and have an appropriate amount of moisture. Of greatest inspiration for the filling was from http://www.pickyourown.org/blueberrypie.php

Categories     Pie

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 9 inch pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 unbaked 9-inch pie shells (recommended Pillsbury)
4 cups fresh blueberries
2/3 cup sugar
7 tablespoons minute tapioca (or flaked tapioca, not tapioca balls)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375ºF.
  • Remove the 2 pie crust dough rolls from the refrigerator to warm to room temperature per package instructions. The one I use says to leave them out for approximately 10-15 minutes.
  • Wash the berries and dry them well. I use a towel and lightly roll the berries across it to make sure they are dry. Set aside.
  • Using a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, tapioca, and cinnamon. Mix well.
  • Add the water and lemon juice to the sugar mixture, stir together until the resulting syrup is an equal consistency.
  • Add the berries to the bowl, lightly fold them into the syrup to coat them.
  • Line the bottom of the 9" deep-dish pie plate with 1 pie crust. Make sure to lightly press down to seal it to the plate, and push out the bubbles. Allow the edge of the crust to overlap the rim of the pie plate.
  • Fill the bottom crust with the berry mixture, allow about 1/2 inch of vertical space between the top of berry filling and the rim of pie plate. Thus, you may not use all of the berry mixture.
  • Cover the filled pie plate with the second crust, use your fingers and/or a fork to seal the edges of the top and bottom crusts together at the rim of the plate. Trim the excess off the edge.
  • Use a knife to cut holes in the top crust to ensure the pie filling is ventilated. This can either be as elaborate as a lattice or simply just round holes spaced evenly over the surface. This is your chance to be creative.
  • Bake at 375ºF for 1 hour or until filling is bubbly and crust is golden brown.
  • Allow to cool on rack before serving, and enjoy the pie my husband calls his "favorite cake!".

Tips:

  • Use fresh blueberries: Fresh blueberries have the best flavor and texture for pies. If you can't find fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Don't overcook the blueberries: Blueberries are delicate and can easily become mushy if they are overcooked. Cook the blueberries just until they are tender and have released their juices.
  • Use a good quality pie crust: A good quality pie crust will make all the difference in your pie. You can either make your own pie crust or use a store-bought pie crust.
  • Chill the pie before serving: Chilling the pie before serving will help to set the filling and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Blueberry pie is a classic American dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tart filling and flaky crust, blueberry pie is sure to be a hit with everyone. Whether you are making it for a special occasion or just for a weeknight dessert, blueberry pie is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that everyone will enjoy.
