Hi Bold Bakers! My Blueberry Pie is the only blueberry pie recipe you need — it’s perfect for any occasion, but especially the 4th of July as the color lends itself perfectly for your upcoming celebration. Already have an account? You know, I had never had blueberry pie before coming to the states and whipping up a recipe for all you Bold Bakers out there, but I’ve fallen hard for it. Like, really hard. It was my absolute favorite out of a recent batch of pies I made, and it was a good excuse to tap into all the frozen blueberries my husband Kevin hoards for his breakfast. Using my perfected Pie Crust recipe (and I know have a Gluten-Free Pie Crust, too), you’re in for the best blueberry pie experience of your life.
All About Blueberries
The best part about putting blueberries in a pie is that blueberries are extremely healthy, even if pies are… more delicious than they are classically healthy. You get what I’m saying — if you’re going to eat a dessert, at least it’ll be one that’s packed to the brim with antioxidants that also have an incredibly sweet taste and gorgeous color. I also find that blueberries release the perfect amount of juice for a pie, and are relatively uniform in size, making for less fuss when wanting to add them to things like pies, tarts, muffins, you name it. By the way, have you tried my Best-Ever Blueberry Muffins?
