Instructions

Step 1

In a saucepan- add frozen blueberries, sugar, vanilla, salt, cinnamon and orange zest/juice. Let simmer until it thickens.

Step 2

Once it gets slightly thicker add in fresh blueberries and cornstarch. Continue simmering for 10-15 minutes until very thick almost like jam. Pour into a bowl and set aside to cool.

Step 3

Pre-bake pie crust according to package. Once golden brown take out of the oven and cool. Once the blueberries have chilled, add to the cooled pie crust.

Step 4

For the top crust- you can either use the whole sheet or cut it into fun shapes with cookie cutters. If using the whole sheet be sure to cut a slit or x in the middle to let the steam get out. Go around the edges to seal the top to the crust. Whisk your egg together then brush on top of the pie.
