Description

This old-fashioned blueberry custard pie recipe makes the ultimate creamy, delicious blueberry-forward summer dessert with an easy prepared pie crust.

Ingredients

2 (9 inch) prepared pie crusts
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 3/4 cups white sugar
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups fresh blueberries

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 410 degrees F (210 degrees C). Place 1 pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate.
2 Beat eggs together in a large bowl; whisk in sugar, flour, cornstarch, milk, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt. Add blueberries; stir to combine. Pour blueberry mixture into bottom crust.
3 Roll out remaining pie crust into a 10-inch circle; cut into ½-inch strips with a sharp paring knife or pastry wheel. Moisten rim of pie with a small amount of water. Start with the longest strips and lay the first 2 in an X in the center of the pie. Alternate horizontal and vertical strips, weaving them in an over-and-under pattern. Use the shortest strips for the edges of the lattice. Fold the ends of the lattice strips under the edge of the bottom crust and flute the crust.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until center is set, about 50 minutes.
