🍓🫐 Blueberry & Strawberry Pie Recipe
🥧 Ingredients:
For the Pie Crust (or use store-bought if preferred):
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 6–8 tbsp ice water
For the Filling:
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- ¼ cup light brown sugar
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
- Pinch of salt
For the Top:
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- 1 tbsp sugar (for sprinkling)
🧑🍳 Instructions:
1. Make the Crust:
- In a large bowl, whisk flour, salt, and sugar.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add ice water a tablespoon at a time until dough holds together when pinched.
- Divide into 2 disks, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 1 hour.
2. Make the Filling:
- In a large bowl, combine blueberries, strawberries, sugars, cornstarch, lemon juice, zest, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
- Gently toss and let sit for 10–15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
3. Assemble the Pie:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Roll out one dough disk and place into a 9-inch pie pan.
- Pour in the berry filling.
- Roll out the second dough disk and lay over the top, or cut into strips for a lattice crust.
- Seal and crimp edges. Cut slits in top crust if not using lattice.
4. Finish & Bake:
- Brush top with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
- Place pie on a baking sheet to catch drips.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 400°F, then reduce heat to 350°F (175°C) and bake for another 35–40 minutes, or until crust is golden and filling is bubbly.
5. Cool & Serve:
- Let pie cool for at least 2 hours to set the filling.
- Serve warm or chilled, with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream 🍦!
🔥🔥🔥Tip:
For extra decadence, brush the bottom crust with melted white chocolate before adding the filling to prevent sogginess and add a sweet twist.
