A Blueberry Pie Recipe, No Sugar Added! - Workman Publishing

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Step 2

Place 4 cups of the blueberries in a saucepan set over medium heat. Cook, smashing occasionally with a wooden spoon or potato masher, until mostly broken down and reduced, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely.

Step 3

Meanwhile, combine the remaining 3 cups blueberries with the cornstarch, lemon zest, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla in a large bowl. Add the cooled cooked blueberries and stir to combine. Transfer the mixture to the pie crust.

Step 4

Whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl to make an egg wash. Brush the egg wash on the edges of the pie crust (and the dough cutouts, if using).\

Step 5

Place the pie on a rimmed baking sheet (if using the dough cutouts, arrange them on top of the filling) and bake for 25 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue to bake until the crust is golden brown and most of the blueberry liquid has evaporated, 15 minutes more. Remove from the oven and cool completely, 2 hours. (Because this pie has no added sugar, it takes more time to fully set.) Slice and serve with the whipped cream, if you like.

Step 6

Use a store-bought pastry crust to cut down on time. Choose one with no added sugar if possible.
