Recipe:

  1. Prepare the Pie Crust:
    • In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and salt.
    • Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
    • Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.
    • Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Blueberry Filling:
    • In a large bowl, combine the blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, lemon zest, and salt. Toss to coat the blueberries evenly.
  3. Assemble the Pie:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F.
    • On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the pie dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Place the dough in the dish and trim any excess.
    • Fill the pie crust with the blueberry mixture.
    • Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the filling. Trim, seal, and crimp the edges. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  4. Prepare the Lemon Glaze:
    • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.
    • Allow the pie to cool completely before drizzling with the lemon glaze.
