BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Simmer 3 cups blueberries with 1/2 cup maple syrup until the mixture reduces by half, about 20 minutes. Pour into a bowl; stir in 4 cups blueberries, 1/2 cup maple syrup, 3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca, 1 tablespoon,lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cool completely, then pour into pie shell; dot with 4 tablespoons butter.
• Perfect All-Butter Piecrust
• Pulse 3 1/2 cups flour, 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Add 1 diced stick cold butter; process until combined. Add 2 more diced sticks cold butter; pulse three times, or until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 1 tablespoon white or cider vinegar. Gradually pour in 1/3 cup ice water, pulsing about four times until combined. Turn out onto a clean surface and press into a cohesive dough without overworking (you should see bits of butter). Wrap in plastic wrap and press into a 1-inch-thick disk; refrigerate at least 1 hour before rolling out.
• How to Make a Pie
• Divide the chilled dough in half; roll 1 piece into a 12-inch, 1/8-inch-thick circle on a lightly floured surface (refrigerate the other piece).
• Roll the dough onto a rolling pin, then unroll it into a 9-inch glass pie plate, letting it hang over the edge; add filling.
• Roll out the other piece of dough and place over the filling; press the crust edges together and trim, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Roll up or pinch the overhang to seal.
• Place a foil-lined baking sheet on a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 450 degrees. Wrap an oiled, wide band of foil around the pie edge to protect the crust. Make slashes in the top of the crust; chill for 30 minutes.
• Reduce the oven to 400 degrees. Bake the pie for 30 minutes. Remove the foil band, brush the crust with heavy cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes; cool before slicing.

SUGAR FREE BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Recipe says make enough pastry dough for a 9 inch double crust pie then put it in the refrigerator over night. This will make the crust much more flaky and it will roll out easier.
• Pre heat at 400 degrees.
• Mix together egg and water to make a egg wash. This will give the crust a rich golden brown color when baked.
• Mix together in a bowl blueberries, splenda, flour, cinnamon, allspice, salt, then pour into prepared pie crust. Drizzle lemon juice over mixture then drop butter on top of mixture. Add top crust,cut slits in top to vent and brush with egg wash.Cut slits in top crust to vent and bake for 45-50 minutes.
• Cool at least 2 hours before serving.

BLUEBERRY CRANBERRY PIE

Steps:

• To make the crust, combine the flour, salt and sugar in a food processor; add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Add the sour cream and water; process a few seconds until a dough ball just starts to form (do not over-process).
• Note: to make the dough by hand, place ingredients in a mixing bowl and use a pastry blender to cut butter and shortening into flour mixture; add the sour cream and ice water, and just mix until it comes together and forms a mass.
• Transfer the dough to a floured work surface and pat down to about 1-inch thick.
• Cut into 2 pieces; wrap each one in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
• To make filling, coarsely grind the orange in a food processor or blender; set aside.
• In a large saucepan, mix together all remaining ingredients, along with orange, stirring to combine, and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and sugar is dissolved, about 4-6 minutes; set aside to cool completely.
• Position the rack in the center of the oven, and the other rack just beneath it.
• Peheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• To prepare pie, roll out 1 piece of the dough on a slightly floured surface into a circle about 12-inches in diameter (dust surface with more flour as necessary).
• Roll the dough around the rolling pin, lift it over a 10-inch pie pan, and unroll over the pan; adjust to center the dough, then press into place.
• Roll out the remaining dough into a 12-inch circle; spoon the cooled filling into the pie shell in the pan, mounding it in the center.
• Using a pastry brush dipped in the milk, moisten the sides of the bottom crust, then drape the top crust over the pie.
• Lightly press the top and bottom crust edges together, and trim the excess dough by running a knife around the edge of the pan.
• Crimp edges to make a decorative border; also cut 3-4 venting slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
• Brush top crust with milk, and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
• Place the pie in the preheated oven, and place a rimmed baking sheet below it.
• Bake for 45- 50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
• Cool on a wire rack; serve warm or at room temp; goes well with ice cream.
