Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Combine blueberries, sugar, flour, and salt in a large bowl. Gently toss to coat blueberries. Set aside.
- On a floured work surface, roll out half the dough to a 1/8-inch-thick square. Using a sharp knife, quarter the square; carefully drape each quarter over a 5-inch pie tin.
- Place 1 1/2 cups blueberry mixture in each pie tin, mounding the berries in the center. Dot each pie with 1 1/2 teaspoons butter.
- Again, on a floured work surface, roll remaining dough into a 1/8-inch-thick square. Using a sharp knife, quarter the square. Using a 1-inch round biscuit cutter, cut a hole in center of each quarter. Drape each quarter over berries, centering steam hole. Seal edges. Trim edges around pie plates to form a 1/2-inch lip. Chill the dough.
- Dampen lip of dough with water. Using scissors, snip inward from outside edge at 3/4-inch intervals, making each cut about 3/4 inch deep. As you cut, carefully fold in alternating tabs to create bear-tooth crimping design. Chill again, about 30 minutes.
- Transfer pies to a baking sheet large enough for tins not to touch. Brush each lightly with cold water; sprinkle with sugar. Bake until crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees; continue baking until blueberry juice begins to bubble, about 15 minutes more. Remove from oven; cool slightly. Serve with ice cream.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Set out six 6-inch mini pie tins.
- Roll dough out and cut a circle to fit the bottom and sides of a pie tin. Place crust in the tin, then crimp the edges and poke the bottoms and sides with a fork. Continue, re-rolling the dough as necessary, to make remaining crusts.
- Place a round piece of parchment paper on top of each crust and add pie weights.
- Bake crusts in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Carefully remove the weights and parchment paper. Let crusts cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- While the crusts are cooling, blend 2 cups blueberries and lemon juice in a blender until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a small saucepan and add gelatin. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin has completely dissolved, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- Stir mascarpone cheese and 1/4 cup sugar into the cooled blueberry mixture until well combined.
- Beat 1 1/2 cups heavy cream and 1 teaspoon vanilla with an electric mixer until foamy, about 30 seconds. Increase speed slowly to medium-high and gradually beat in remaining 1/4 cup sugar until stiff peaks form, about 1 minute. Gradually fold whipped cream mixture into the blueberry mixture. Spoon evenly into the cooled pie crusts.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- When ready to serve, whip remaining remaining 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla together. Slowly mix in 1 tablespoon sugar until whipped cream forms.
- Top each pie with whipped cream and blueberries.

Tips:
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor. If using frozen blueberries, thaw them completely before using.

- Be careful not to overfill the pie crusts, or the filling will bubble over.
- Bake the pies until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let the pies cool slightly before serving. They can be served warm or at room temperature.
- Top the pies with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special treat.
Conclusion:
These individual blueberry pies are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a simple pie crust and a sweet and tangy blueberry filling. The pies are then baked until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. They can be served warm or at room temperature, and they are even better when topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
