SIMPLE BLUEBERRY APPLE PIE

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 cups flour, plus extra for dusting
Pinch of salt
1 stick butter, cut into small cubes and frozen
1/4 cup ice water
16 ounces fresh blueberries
2 Golden Delicious apples, cored, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
Pinch of salt
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small cubes
1 egg
2 tablespoons turbinado sugar
Special equipment: 9-inch pie pan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the crust: In a food processor, add the flour and a nice pinch of salt. Pulse very lightly just to blend. Add the butter evenly around the flour and quickly pulse until the flour resembles small crumbles. Slowly pour the water through the spout until the dough begins to come together. Remove and quickly form into a disc. Tightly cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, for the filling: In a large bowl, add the blueberries, apples, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine and set aside.
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place on a lightly floured surface. Gently roll the disc into a circle big enough to fit into the pie pan and leave a 3-inch overhang. The dough should be about 1/8-inch thick. Using a pizza cutter, trim the edges of the dough. Place the dough into the pie pan and press gently against the bottom and sides to fit the dough into the pan. Pour in the fruit filling, and then scatter the butter evenly around the top of the pie. Fold the extra dough that's hanging off the edge over the top to create the top of the pie crust. Leave a hole in the center for ventilation.
  • Whisk the egg with 1 teaspoon water and brush the top with egg wash and then sprinkle with the sugar.
  • Place in the oven and bake until the crust is golden brown, about 35 minutes. Let the pie rest at least an hour before serving to let the filling set.

Time 7h50m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 teaspoon active dry yeast (not rapid-rise)
1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 cup whole milk, heated until warm to the touch (about 110 degrees)
1 large egg, room temperature
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for bowl
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 1/2 pounds Granny Smith apples (about 8), peeled, cored, and cut into 3/4-inch wedges
1/2 cup sugar
5 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups frozen wild Maine blueberries (9 ounces), such as Wyman's, thawed and drained
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Dough:In a bowl, sprinkle yeast and sugar over milk. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Whisk in egg and butter until smooth. Stir in flour and salt. Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface; knead until smooth and tacky but no longer sticky, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl brushed with butter, turning to coat. Cover with a clean kitchen towel; let rise until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours; or refrigerate until doubled in volume, 18 to 48 hours.
  • Topping:Combine butter, sugar, flour, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl; massage together with your fingers until combined. Press into bottom of bowl; cover and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 3 days.
  • Filling: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Toss apples with sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon. Spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until almost tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in blueberries, salt, lemon juice, and remaining 3 tablespoons flour; roastuntil apples are tender, about 10 minutes more. Let cool 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, punch down dough. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out to a 13-inch round. Transfer to a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie dish. Fold overhang under itself until flush with edge of plate (do not crimp edges). Loosely cover with towel; let stand until puffy and doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
  • Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees. Transfer filling to center of dough, gently spreading to sides of dish without compressing dough. Crumble topping into bite-size pieces and sprinkle evenly over filling.
  • Bake just until dough begins to brown, about 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; bake until filling bubbles around edges and crust and topping turn golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes more. (If crust or topping are browning too quickly, tent with foil.) Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely, at least 4 hours or, loosely covered, up to 1 day. Slice and serve with ice cream.

APPLE AND BLUEBERRY HAND PIES

Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield about 16 pies

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 boxes prepared frozen puff pastry
6 apples
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup honey
Pinch salt
3/4 cup fresh blueberries
1 egg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons sugar
All-purpose flour, for dusting work surface

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Thaw the sheets of puff pastry as per the box instructions.
  • Peel and core the apples and cut into quarters. Toss the apples in the lemon juice so they do not brown while you are dicing them. Cut each quarter into about 2 to 3 (1-inch) pieces.
  • In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt the butter until lightly browned. Add the apples and saute for about 3 to 5 minutes until lightly browned. Add the honey and a pinch of salt and toss to mix in well, transfer to the oven and roast for about 15 minutes until apples are soft. Mash with a fork while still warm. Let the apples cool to room temperature and gently fold in the berries.
  • Turn the oven down to 400 degrees F.
  • In a small mixing bowl beat 1 egg. In another small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and sugar.
  • Lay the thawed puff pastry sheets out flat on a floured work surface. Cut large circles out of the pastry with a ring cutter, about 4 per pastry sheet. Brush with the egg-wash on the outer edge of half of the circle. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the apple berry mixture in the center of each round of pastry dough. Fold the dough over to cover the filling, making a semi-circle and sealing the edges.
  • Place pies on a buttered oven tray. Repeat with the rest of the pastry dough. When all of the pies are on a sheet tray cut air holes in the top of each pie and brush the tops with egg wash. Sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes until puffed and nicely browned.

WILD BLUEBERRY PIE

Yield Makes 1 pie

Number Of Ingredients 15

For the pâte brisée:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
2 tablespoons cold vegetable shortening
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons ice water plus additional if necessary
For the wild blueberry pie:
6 cups wild blueberries, picked over
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 cup sugar plus additional for sprinkling the pie
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut into bits
2 tablespoons half-and-half or milk

Steps:

  • To make the pie:
  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Roll out half the dough 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface, fit it into a 9-inch (1 quart) pie plate, and trim the edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Chill the shell while making the filling. In a large bowl toss together well the blueberries, the cornstarch, 1 cup of the sugar, the lemon juice, the nutmeg, and the salt, mound the filling in the shell, and dot it with the butter.
  • Roll out the remaining dough into a 13 to 14-inch round on the lightly floured surface, cut out a 1 1/2-inch star from the middle of the round, and drape the round over the filling. Trim the dough, leaving a 1-inch overhang, fold the overhang under the bottom crust, pressing the edge to seal it, and crimp the edge decoratively. Brush the crust with the half-and-half or milk, cut slits in the top crust around the crust, and sprinkle the pie lightly with the additional sugar. Bake the pie in the bottom third of the oven for 20 minutes, reduce the temperature to 375°F., and bake the pie for 30 to 35 minutes more, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling. Transfer the pie to a rack and let it cool.
  • To make the pâte brisée:
  • In a large bowl blend the flour, the butter, the vegetable shortening, and the salt until the mixture resembles meal. Add the 2 tablespoons ice water, toss the mixture until the water is incorporated, adding the additional ice water if necessary to form a dough, and form the dough into a ball. Dust the dough with flour and chill it, wrapped in wax paper, for 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe blueberries and apples. This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your pie.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the apples. This will help prevent them from browning.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pie. The filling should be bubbly and the crust should be golden brown.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set.

Conclusion:

This classic wild blueberry and apple pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, sweet and tart filling, and beautiful presentation, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give this wild blueberry and apple pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
