Ingredients
For the Crust:
- ½ cup (113g) Danish Creamery European salted butter, cold
- 1 ½ cup (210g) all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) distilled white vinegar
- 2 teaspoons ice cold water (additional as needed)
For the Filling:
- 24 ounces (680g) fresh blueberries (about 5 ½ cups)
- ½ cup (70g) all-purpose flour
- ½ cup (110g) light brown sugar
- Zest 1 lemon
- Juice of ½ lemon
For the crumble:
- 6 tablespoons (84g) Danish Creamery European salted butter, cold
- 1/3 cup (46g) all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup (55g) light brown sugar
- 2/3 cup (53g) rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon (5g) cinnamon
Instructions
For the Crust
- Cut the cold butter into 1/2-inch thick cubes. It should be fresh from the fridge.
- Combine the flour, salt and butter in a food processor. Pulse several times until the mixture is crumbly, but still has large chunks of butter.
- Add the egg, vinegar, and 2 teaspoons of ice-cold water. Pulse until the dough begins to hold together. If needed, add additional water 1 teaspoon at a time.
- Turn the dough out onto the counter. Press it into a ball, then flatten it into a disc about 5 inches wide. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for a minimum of 60 minutes.
- Roll the dough onto a lightly floured surface, rolling from the center to the edges and rotating occasionally. Roll it out so it’s about 11” in diameter, leaving you at least 1 inch on each side of the pie plate.
- Place the dough into a 9-inch pie plate and fold under the excess edges, then crimp the edges. Refrigerate the dough while you prepare your pie filling.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
For the Filling
- Rinse and dry the blueberries. In a large bowl, combine the blueberries with the flour and sugar and toss to coat the berries in the dry ingredients.
- Zest the lemon and then squeeze the juice over the berries and mix together until well combined. Let the mixture set for at least 10 minutes.
For the Topping
- Dice the butter into small pieces and combine with the flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Use a pastry cutter or two forks and press the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles a crumbly mixture and the butter is broken down into smaller pieces.
- Next, add the rolled oats and cut them into the flour mixture. Once it’s roughly combined, use your hands to start pressing the mixture into larger pieces.
- Pour your blueberry filling into the prepared crust and then sprinkle the crumble topping over the berries.
- Bake at 375°F for 60-65 minutes placed on a rack on the lower third of your oven. The filling should be bubbling. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 2 hours.
Notes
Storing: Store any leftover blueberry pie covered airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Reheating: To reheat the entire pie or a large portion of it, bake it at 325°F for about 15 minutes, or until warmed through. Individual slices can be reheated in the microwave.
