Crumbly Streusel Y Blueberry Pie Food

BLUEBERRY CRUMB PIE

Steps:

• Make the dough: Pulse the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, vinegar, salt and about one-third of the butter in a food processor until the butter is incorporated. Add the remaining butter and pulse until it is in pea-size pieces. Add 2 tablespoons ice water and pulse until the dough just comes together. Pinch a small piece of dough: If it doesn't hold together, add up to 2 more tablespoons ice water, pulsing, 1 tablespoon at a time. Turn the dough out onto a large piece of plastic wrap and press into a ball. Pat into a 1/2-inch-thick disk and wrap tightly. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Roll the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface or between 2 pieces of lightly floured parchment paper. (If the dough becomes soft, refrigerate until firm.) Center the dough in a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhang under itself and crimp the edges; refrigerate 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lightly pierce the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork, then line with parchment paper or foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake 20 minutes, then remove the parchment and weights and continue baking until lightly golden, about 10 more minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Bring 3 cups blueberries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar and the lemon zest to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat, crushing the berries slightly with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Discard the lemon zest. Transfer the blueberry mixture to a bowl; stir in the remaining 3 cups berries and 1/4 cup granulated sugar, the lemon juice, whole-wheat flour, nutmeg and salt. Let cool completely.
• Make the topping: Combine the nuts, brown sugar, whole-wheat flour, butter and salt. Squeeze the mixture into clumps with your hands and scatter on a baking sheet. Freeze 30 minutes.
• Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Pour the blueberry filling into the crust and top with the frozen crumb topping. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until the filling is bubbly and the topping is golden brown, 45 to 55 minutes. (If the topping browns too quickly, cover it with foil.) Transfer the pie to a rack and let cool overnight, or at least 4 hours, so the filling sets.

BERRY CRUMBLE PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor to combine. Add the shortening and pulse a few times until coarse crumbs form. Pulse in the butter until just combined with some pea-size pieces remaining. Pulse in the vinegar and 2 tablespoons ice water until the dough starts to come together but is still crumbly, adding up to 2 more tablespoons ice water if needed. Turn out the dough onto a piece of plastic wrap and pat into a disk. Wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Meanwhile, make the topping: Combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon and allspice in a medium bowl. Work in the butter with your fingers until clumps form. Refrigerate until ready to assemble the pie.
• Make the filling: Combine the berries, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, tapioca, cinnamon, cardamom and salt in a large bowl; toss well.
• Place a baking sheet on the lowest oven rack and preheat to 425 degrees F. Roll out the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface; ease into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edge. Refrigerate until firm, at least 20 minutes.
• Pour the berry filling into the crust and sprinkle evenly with the crumb topping. Transfer the pie to the hot baking sheet and bake 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F and continue baking, rotating the pie halfway through, until the crust and topping are browned and the filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 more minutes. (Tent loosely with foil if the pie is browning too quickly.) Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.

Add the butter and pulse a few times until it is in pea-size pieces. Add the ice water and vodka; pulse a few times until the dough starts coming together but is still crumbly. Turn out onto a sheet of plastic wrap and form into a disk. Wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Meanwhile, make the topping: Combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, salt, allspice and ginger in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, work the butter into the mixture until clumpy. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Put a baking sheet in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 400 degrees F. Make the filling: Combine the strawberries, brown sugar, granulated sugar, tapioca, lime juice, cardamom and salt in a large bowl. Stir until the sugar and tapioca are dissolved and the strawberries are evenly coated. Set aside.
• Roll out the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edges with your fingers or a fork. Refrigerate until firm, at least 15 minutes. Spread the strawberry filling in the crust and sprinkle evenly with the crumble topping. Place the pie on the hot baking sheet and bake until the crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbling around the edge, about 1 hour. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely, at least 4 hours.

CRUMB TOPPING FOR PIES

Steps:

BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE PIE

Steps:

• For crust:
• Pulse 1 1/4 cups flour, butter, and salt in a food processor until mixture resembles coarse meal with some pea-size pieces remaining. Drizzle 3 tablespoons ice water over mixture. Pulse until moist clumps form, adding more water by teaspoonfuls if mixture is dry. Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface. Divide into 4 equal pieces. Working with 1 piece at a time, use the heel of your hand to smear each portion of dough twice in a forward motion to distribute butter. Gather all 4 dough pieces into a ball. Flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill dough until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to a 13" round. Transfer to pie dish, gently pressing dough onto bottom and up sides of dish. Fold overhang under and crimp edges decoratively. Pierce bottom of crust in several places with a fork, then chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Line a large baking sheet with foil and place on a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 375°F. Line crust with parchment paper or foil and fill with pie weights. Bake until crust is set, about 20 minutes. Carefully remove parchment and pie weights. Bake until crust is pale golden, about 12 minutes longer. Transfer crust to a wire rack; let cool.
• Filling and topping:
• Whisk 2/3 cup sugar, cornstarch, and lemon zest in a large bowl. Add blueberries and lemon juice; toss gently to coat and evenly distribute. Let filling stand, tossing occasionally, until berries release their juices, 20-30 minutes.
• Whisk flour, remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, light brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. Add melted butter; mix topping with fingertips to blend.
• Assembly:
• Preheat oven to 375°. Spoon blueberry filling into crust, then sprinkle topping over. Bake pie until filling is bubbling and topping is golden, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cover with foil after 30 minutes if browning too fast.
• Let pie cool on a wire rack.
• Do Ahead
• Dough can be made up to 2 days ahead. Keep chilled. Pie can be baked 8 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.

BLUEBERRY SOUR CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare pie crust by covering the crust's edges with foil. This will help to keep the edges from getting too brown.
• To make the filling, combine sugar and flour together in a medium sized mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat in sour cream, egg, vanilla, and salt over medium speed for about five minutes. Carefully fold in the blueberries. Pour batter into pie crust and bake for 30 minutes.
• While pie is baking, prepare the topping by crumbling together the flour, sugar, and butter with a fork.
• Remove pie from the oven and sprinkle on the topping. Return to the oven and bake for 10-15 more minutes until topping is golden. Remove from oven and allow to cool throughly before slicing. Enjoy!

PEACH BLUEBERRY STREUSEL PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F Combine sugar, cornstarch and ginger into a large bowl. Add peaches, blueberries and lemon zest; toss lightly to coat. Spoon filling into pastry.
• *Note* If using frozen peaches and/or frozen blueberries make sure to place the frozen fruit into a strainer to thaw and drain before using or pie will be watery.
• Combine flour, brown sugar and cinnamon in medium bowl. Cut in 1/3 cup butter with pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle topping over fruit.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes or until crust and topping are golden brown and juice begins to bubble.

BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE PIE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon with a spoon.
• Use a pastry blender or your fingers to incorporate the softened butter. Combine until you can squeeze together the crumble and it sticks together in clumps.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place into the refrigerator as you prepare your pie.
• Prepare the pie crust if you are making homemade pie crust. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
• In a large bowl, mix the blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, tapioca, cinnamon, and nutmeg with a spoon. Set aside.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the bottom crust slightly larger in diameter than your baking dish. Gently place the pie crust into the pan lightly, using your fingers. Use kitchen shears to trim the edges of the crust, to about ¾-inch past the pan rim.
• Use a slotted spoon to scoop the blueberry filling to the unbaked pie shell. Discard any leftover lemon juice.
• Gently cover the entire pie evenly with the crumble topping.
• Brush the pie crust edges with an egg wash.
• Place in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 1 hour. The crust will be golden brown and the filling bubbling up around edges.
• Part way through baking, cover the pie with a piece of aluminum foil you have cut a hole in the center. This will help the pie continue cooking, but let steam escape so your pie crust does not become soggy. This will prevent the edges of the pie crust from becoming too brown.
• Let cool for at least an hour or two before slicing. This will allow the pie filling to set.

BLUEBERRY STREUSEL PIE

Steps:

• To make crust: Stir together 1 cup flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, and salt in a medium bowl.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
• Cook, swirling the pan, until the butter turns a nutty brown, about 30 seconds.
• Cover loosely with with foil and set in the middle of the oven, with a baking sheet placed on the rack below to catch any drippings.
• Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until the berries are juicy and bubbling.
• Frozen berries will take 10 minutes longer to cook.
• Uncover the pie, sprinkle evenly with the reserved streusel topping and bake for 12 to 15 minutes longer, or until the streusel is golden.
• Cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes, then cool completely in the refrigerator, about 2 hours.

CHERRY-BERRY STREUSEL PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• FILLING: Combine sugar, cornstarch and salt in a mixing bowl.
• Drain cherries, pouring 1/4 cup of the juice into a small bowl or measuring cup. Set the cherries aside. Add almond extract and vanilla to the juice in the cup.
• Add the liquid to the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl and mix well. Add the butter and use the back of a fork to smoosh it up into smaller pieces that will spread themselves around the mixture.
• Stir in the cherries and let the mixture stand for 15 minutes. While it's sitting there, taunting you, make the streusel:.
• STREUSEL: Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl, then add the butter and vanilla. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a pastry blender or two knives until mixture looks crumbly - like a bowl of gravel. (Bad analogy. Sorry.) Set the streusel aside. *Note to self: Next time, make the streusel with cold butter and the food processor, do it ahead of time, and store it in the refrigerator. That way, you can stand around and watch the cherries in that bowl and won't miss out on any of the action.*.
• Back to the FILLING: Stir the blueberry pie filling into the cherries.
• Pour filling into pie crust and sprinkle the streusel as evenly as possible over the top. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes.
• Note: if you decide to go make it without the pie crust, less baking time is required. It will be done when it's bubbly and the streusel is browned - 40-45 minutes.
