Provided by KatrinaB

Number Of Ingredients 17

CRUST:
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup very cold unsalted butter
small bowl of ice water plus 1 teaspoon white vinegar
FILLING:
1 quart fresh wild Maine blueberries
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 ounces softened Neufchatel cheese
Garnish
Whipped sweet cream

Steps:

  • CRUST: Measure the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Add the cubed butter and mix with a pastry blender until it resembles coarse crumbles. Add the ice cold vinegar water by teaspoon and mix. Continue adding water until the mix barely comes together. Turn out on a piece of plastic wrap and form into a ball. Wrap tightly in the plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour. FILLING: In a heavy bottomed sauce pan combine 2 cups blueberries, water, sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, lemon juice and vanilla. Cook covered over medium heat for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool. Preheat oven 425°F. Next, roll out pie dough adding flour as needed and press into a 9 inch pie plate. Prick the bottom with a fork. Place a piece of parchment paper over the dough and fill the plate with dried beans (or use pie weights if you have them). Bake for 20 minutes and reduce heat to 350°F. Continue baking 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely. Finally, spread the softened Neufchatel cheese over the pie crust. Mix the remaining 2 cups of blueberries with the cooked berries and pour the filling into the crust. Serve chilled with whipped cream.

This was the perfect summer pie! The blueberries were fresh and juicy, and the glaze was just the right amount of sweetness.

The glaze was a bit too runny for my taste, but otherwise the pie was delicious.

I made this pie for my husband's birthday and he loved it! He said it was the best blueberry pie he's ever had.

I'm not much of a baker, but this pie was really easy to make. Plus, it's so delicious that my friends and family always ask me to make it for them.

I didn't have any blueberries on hand, so I used raspberries instead. The pie still turned out great!

Not a fan, the glaze was too tart for me.

This blueberry glaze pie was a huge hit! The glaze is zesty and sweet without being overpowering, and the blueberries added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the glaze perfectly.
