Maine Blueberry Pie




Source of Recipe


NBC


List of Ingredients




5 cups blueberries, preferably Maine wild blueberries, rinsed and picked over
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter, cut in small chunks



Recipe



In a large bowl, toss the blueberries with the sugar, flour, cinnamon, lemon peel, lemon juice, and salt. Set aside while preparing the pastry.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Fit a 12-inch round of pastry dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Spoon the blueberry filling into the shell and dot with butter. Cover with the top crust and trim the overhanging dough 3/4-inch all around. Turn the edges under and crimp or flute to seal. Use a sharp knife to cut steam vents.

Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, about 40 minutes
