Blueberry Pie Recipe (VIDEO)
The ultimate Blueberry Pie Recipe! The filling is bursting with sweet, juicy blueberries and tastes amazing with vanilla ice cream.
Making a pie from scratch is so rewarding and this blueberry pie does not disappoint. It is THE ONE dessert everyone should make before the season ends. P.S. This all-butter pie crust is a keeper; flaky, soft and so easy to make!
Blueberry Pie Recipe
Can I substitute with Frozen Blueberries?
When blueberries are in season, we use fresh blueberries but you can make blueberry pie with frozen blueberries without thawing first, but it may take slightly longer for the blueberries to bubble at the top.
Ingredients for Blueberry Pie:
We used 6 cups of sweet blueberries. If your blueberries are ultra sweet, you can get away with slightly less sugar. If your blueberries are super tart, you can add a few extra tablespoons of sugar.
You will need 1 recipe for our homemade pie crust (super easy!)
Pie Making Tools
- 9-inch, deep pie pan which allows for A TON of blueberries!
- Rolling Pin – a simple one will do.
- Food Processor – or use a pastry cutter to cut butter into flour.
How to Create a Lattice Pie Crust:
1. Place 5 strips of dough over the pie crust, with the wider strips in the center and shorter strips towards the edges.
2. Fold back every other strip half way and place a long strip in the center perpendicular to the first 5 strips. Fold the strips back over the new line and fold back the alternate strips. Continue adding and alternating strips then switch to the other side of the pie and complete until lattice is complete.

Blueberry Pie Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 recipe for pie crust yields 2 crusts
- 6 cups blueberries, rinsed and well drained (2 lbs or 32 oz)
- 1 tsp lemon zest from 1 lemon
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 4 1/2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 egg + 1 Tbsp water
Instructions
-
Pre-make your pie crust and let it refrigerate 1 hour in refrigerator before using. Roll the first disk into a 13" circle and transfer to a 9" wide pie pan.
-
Roll the second crust into a 12" circle and use a pizza cutter to slice into ten 1-inch strips.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine 6 cups blueberries, 1 tsp lemon zest, 2 Tbsp lemon juice, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 4 1/2 Tbsp flour, 1 tsp cinnamon and toss to combine. Transfer blueberries into the dough-lined pie pan, mounding it just slightly in the center and keeping the edges clean of blueberry juice.
-
Using the 10 strips of dough, create a lattice crust over the top (see photo tutorial on natashaskitchen.com), pinch the edges to seal and crimp edges if desired.
-
Beat together 1 egg and 1 Tbsp water and brush the egg wash over the lattice crust and edges. Bake in the center of the oven at 375˚F for 50-60 minutes, or until crust is golden and blueberry juice is bubbling at the edges.

Do you have to grease the pie pan?
Hi Sarah! That is not necessary
Can I make the dough and pie filling a day or two before I make the pie? Just keep them separate?
That should be fine. I would love to know how you like that if you experiment. Be sure to keep it wrapped securely to not let the dough dry out.
I made this filling and used it in a slab pie in a 9″ x13″x1″ jellyroll pan. The filing is delicious! I used frozen blueberries with no problems.
That’s so great! Thank you for sharing that with me!!
My pie has so much juice st the bottom of it and the bottom pie crust isn’t there anymore what did I do wrong? Anything would help
Karin, did you alter the recipe in any way?
Hy ! What diameter the tray has !? Thank you ! 😘
Hi Roxy! We used this 9″ pie pan here.
Thank you very much !! ❤ I have one more question !! I have a detachable cakes pan ! It’s good for this pie ? 🙈 Sorry for disturbing you again !
Are you referring to a springform? or what kind of detachable pan?
Yes !! A springform !! Its good ?
Hi Roxy, a springform pan is a little risky because it can leak blueberry juices. If you would like to risk it, maybe bake it over a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil.
I baked it few days ago, my pie came beautiful and tasty.
I really enjoyed the combination between blueberries, cinammon and lemon, I also added balsamic vinager to my pie and definitely it made the blueberries more flavorful.
Thanks Natasha for a great recipe.
My pleasure, Naye! Thank you for the awesome review! 🙂
wow…
amazing.. superb
no word for this post..
it looks so delicious .
Thank you for your amazing feedback!
Could you make this pie, and before baking it, freeze it instead?
Hi Ana! Yes it is best to freeze before baking vs after if you plan on doing that. Freezing after will cause the dough to be tougher.
Can I use frozen blueberries? I thought I could freeze before baking it.
Hi Paula! That may work. You may have to adjust bake time a bit since it make take longer. I hope you love it!
Hi Natasha! If I freeze the pie before baking, its probably best to thaw once I am ready to bake right?
Yes it is best to freeze before baking vs after if you plan on doing that. Freezing after will cause the dough to be tougher. You can do it either way honestly. I have let it thaw before baking before and it worked out really well!
Yum! i gonna bake it , but the way, Hello,
I’m looking for the recipe for a typical Moroccan dish, which I enjoyed during my stay in Morocco in a restaurant called Rab Rabat Dar Rbatia, its name is beef lamb with prunes and apricots, it is a very well known dish in Morocco, a mixed sweet salty. I want to cook this dish at home in a tagine that I brought with me during my stay. And I found the recipe on the website of the restaurant, https://darrbatia.com/best-moroccan-recipes and I wanted to know in your opinion if it’s the right recipe to follow or if you can offer me a better . any help
Hi Sara, We have these Moraccan recipes here and here you may like. I haven’t tried that specific recipe so I wouldn’t know what I’m comparing it too. Sounds delicious however.
Wow this pie is looking SO SO good to me right now!!!
I agree! Thank you Allyson!
I LOVE blueberry pie I cant wait to make this recipe!
We love it also, Thanks Beth!
This needs to happen at my house very soon!!
I agree! I’m so happy you discovered this recipe, Erin!
Oooooh!! This Blueberry Pie looks and sounds AMAZING! I can’t wait to try it!
Thanks Jessica! I hope you LOVE it! 🙂
This is the best recipe I’ve found for a blueberry pie! Delicious!
Thank you so much Krissy!! 🙂
I also always sprinkle a little good quality balsamic vinegar over the berries as it intensifies the flavor of the blueberries.
Oh my goodness that sounds great!! I bet it gives it great depth of flavor. Thanks for sharing!!
Your welcome.I use balsamic with berries in the same way vanilla extract is added to recipes as you say to add depth. Enjoy!
To Anne and Natasha, adding balsamic vinegar sounds interesting. Would you use it to replace the lemon juice or can you do both?
Oooh great question!
I do both the balsamic just makes the berry flavor deeper. The lemon complements the berry flavor.
How much balsamic viniger would you suggest adding? Thanks
How much balsamic viniger do you suggest using?
Hi Aatish, I haven’t tried this with balsamic so I can’t really speak to that.
I have never measured. I just cover the bottle opening with my thumb and sprinkle over the berries. I would have to guess a teaspoon to 1 1/2 teaspoons. it doesn’t take much especially if you are using lemon as well but it does make the flavor more intense and bright. hope that helps.
Hi, Natasha. The pie looks so good, I’d like to make it tomorrow but I don’t have enough blueberries, can I substitute some with strawberries or even another fruit? Would the rest of the ingredients change? Thank you !
Hi Ginka, I think that could work to make it a berry pie if you are short on blueberries. Add as much blueberries as you have and sub in the rest of the berries to make it a berry pie.
i just put this baby in the oven for me and my hubby to enjoy thanks Natasha
You’re so welcome. Rosemary! Enjoy!
