Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh blueberries. If you're using frozen blueberries, be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • If you don't have a 9-inch pie plate, you can use a 10-inch pie plate. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust. The filling should come to about 1/2 inch below the rim of the crust.
  • Before baking, brush the top crust with milk and sprinkle with sugar. This will help the crust to brown and become crispy.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the crust to firm up.
  • Serve the pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:
