Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

For crust
2 1/4 cups unbleached all purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons chilled vegetable shortening, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
7 tablespoons (about) ice water
For filling
4 cups fresh blueberries (about 23 ounces)
1 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup unbleached all purpose flour
1/4 cup quick-cooking tapioca
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make crust:
  • Blend first 4 ingredients in processor. Add shortening and butter. Using on/off turns, process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Mix in enough ice water by tablespoonfuls to form moist clumps. Gather dough together; divide into 2 pieces, 1 slightly larger than the other. Flatten into disks; wrap each in plastic and chill 1 hour. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep chilled. Let soften slightly at room temperature before rolling out.)
  • Make filling:
  • Place baking sheet on bottom of oven and position rack in center; preheat to 375°F. Combine blueberries, syrup, flour, tapioca and juice in bowl; toss to blend. Let stand 15 minutes.Roll out larger dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Pour filling into crust. Roll out second dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Arrange over filling. Seal crusts at edge of dish. Trim overhang to 3/4 inch; fold under and crimp edge decoratively. Using small knife, cut several slits in top crust.
  • Bake pie until juices bubble thickly and crust is golden, about 1 hour. Cool pie on rack. Serve at room temperature.

This pie was okay. The crust was good, but the filling was a little too tart for my taste. I would make this pie again, but I would use less sugar in the filling.

This pie was a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the filling was too sweet. I would not recommend this pie.

This pie was a hit with my family! The blueberry filling was sweet and tart, and the maple flavor added a touch of sweetness. The crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this pie again.
