Betty Crocker Blueberry Pie Recipes

BLUEBERRY RASPBERRY LATTICE PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. In medium bowl, cut shortening into flour and salt, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
• Gather pastry into a ball. Divide pastry in half and shape into two flattened rounds on lightly floured surface. Roll pastry into circle 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch pie plate with floured rolling pin. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side.
• In large bowl, mix sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon. Gently stir in blueberries and raspberries. Spoon berry mixture into pastry-lined pie plate. Sprinkle with lemon juice. Cut butter into small pieces; sprinkle over berry mixture.
• Roll second round of pastry; cut into strips 1/2 to 1 inch wide. (Use a pastry wheel for decorative strips.) Place 5 to 7 strips across filling in pie plate. Weave a cross-strip through center by first folding back every other strip going the other way. Continue weaving until lattice is complete, folding back alternate strips each time cross-strip is added. (To save time, do not weave strips. Simply lay second half of strips across first strips.) Trim ends of strips. Fold trimmed edge of bottom pastry over ends of strips, building up a high edge. Seal and flute.
• Cover lattice top with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil for last 10 minutes of baking. Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until crust is golden brown and juice begins to bubble through lattice crust.

FRESH BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Make 1 pie crust as directed on box for One-Crust Baked Shell. Set aside. Roll out second pie crust and use a cookie cutter to cut decorative shapes for the top of the pie. Bake 7 minutes; set aside.
• In 2-quart saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch. Mix well. Gradually stir in water. Cook and stir over medium heat until clear, about 10 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups of the blueberries. Reduce heat to low; cover. Cook until berries come back to a boil, about 10 minutes. Add cinnamon, lemon juice and lemon peel. Stir. Add remaining blueberries. Stir. Pour into cooled, baked pie shell.
• Add decorative pie crust shapes to top of pie. Let pie stand until set, about 3 hours.

BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE SLAB PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400° F. Place both pie crusts in half-sheet pan, overlapping slightly. Fit into pan, pressing into corners. Trim edges to about 1/2 inch overhanging sides of pan, then fold over and tuck into pan.
• In large bowl, toss Filling ingredients. Dump into crust.
• In small bowl, mix Topping ingredients with fork. Use fingers to form olive-sized chunks of topping. Scatter over top of filling.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until topping is golden and blueberry filling is bubbling. Cool slightly. If desired, serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

BLUEBERRY PIE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups or grease with shortening or cooking spray.
• In small bowl, mix filling ingredients; set aside. In medium bowl, mix all streusel ingredients with fork until crumbly; set aside.
• In large bowl, beat milk, oil, egg and lemon peel with fork or whisk until blended. Stir in remaining muffin ingredients all at once just until flour is moistened (batter will be lumpy).
• Spoon about 1 tablespoon batter in bottom of each muffin cup (spread, if necessary, to cover most of bottom of cup). Alternately drop rounded 1/2 teaspoon blueberry mixture and 1 teaspoon remaining muffin batter in different areas in each muffin cup, layering as necessary. (Cups will be three-fourths full.)
• Sprinkle streusel evenly over batter and blueberry mixture in each cup.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes. Remove from pan to cooling rack. Serve warm if desired.
