Blueberry Pie With Meyer Lemon Ice Cream Recipes

MEYER LEMON & BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• In the work bowl of a food processor, place flour, sugar, and salt; pulse until combined. Add cold butter, pulsing until mixture is crumbly. Add buttermilk, 1 tablespoon (15 grams) at a time, just until a dough forms. Turn out dough, and shape into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Let dough stand at room temperature until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate, pressing into bottom and up sides. Prick bottom of dough with a fork. Trim excess dough to ½ inch beyond edge of plate. Fold in edges.
• Create a fluted crust by using the thumb and forefinger on one hand as spacers, and pushing the dough in with the other thumb. Freeze for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Top dough with a piece of parchment paper, letting ends extend over edges of plate. Add pie weights.
• Bake for 15 minutes. Carefully remove paper and weights. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Spoon room temperature Blueberry Jam into prepared crust. Refrigerate for at least 35 minutes. Top with Meyer Lemon Curd, smoothing with an off set spatula. Garnish with Glazed Blueberries, if desired.
• In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, ¼ cup (60 grams) water, pectin, gelatin, lemon juice, and salt. Add blueberries, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, and simmer, whisking constantly, until smooth, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer blueberry mixture to a medium bowl, and place in a larger bowl filled with ice. Let cool in ice bath, whisking occasionally, until jam has thickened and reached room temperature.
• In a medium saucepan, rub together sugar and zest with fingertips. Whisk in cornstarch and salt. Add lemon juice and ½ cup (120 grams) water, whisking until smooth. Whisk in egg yolks and gelatin. Cook over medium-high heat until thickened, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in butter.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with plastic wrap. Pour curd onto prepared pan, and press another piece of plastic wrap directly onto surface of curd. Place pan on a wire rack, and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until chilled.

MINI BLUEBERRY & MEYER LEMON CREAM PIES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350° and spray your pans with non-stick spray.
• Prepare your pie crust according to the recipes and cut out tops and bottoms to fit 8 mini pie crust tins or one standard size plate. Press one piece into the bottom of each pan.
• In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, half the egg, 1 Tbsp flour and half the lemon zest. Dollop a couple of Tablespoons of cream mixture on each crust.
• In a large bowl, toss the blueberries, 2 Tbsp. flour, sugar, lemon juice and half the lemon zest. Divide the blueberry mixture among the pies, topping the cream mixture. Top each pie with a pat of butter before covering with the top pie crust.
• Press the edges of the crust so it is firmly sealed.
• To the remaining egg, add 1 Tbsp water and mix well. With a pastry brush, brush the tops of the pie crusts with the egg wash and sprinkle with the cinnamon and sugar mixture.
• Cover the pies with tinfoil and bake for 30 minutes at 350°. Remove the tinfoil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. If you made the recipe in one large pie as opposed to the mini pies, you will need to extend the baking time a little.
• Serve warm, preferably with a scoop of ice cream.

BLUEBERRY-LEMON PIE WITH A BUTTER CRUST

Steps:

• For the flaky butter pie crust: Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and cut it in with a pastry blender until the largest pieces are the size of small peas and the mixture begins to clump on the pastry blender. Shuffle through the mixture with your hands, pinching chunks of fat to flatten them.
• Stir the vinegar and 5 tablespoons ice water together in a bowl. Add the liquid to the flour mixture and stir with a fork. Pinch a clump of dough in your hands: If it feels moist and clumps together easily, it's probably hydrated enough. If it feels really crumbly, add another tablespoon or two of ice water until you can form a baseball-size clump of dough, packing it on as if you were making a snowball.
• Divide the dough in half and form each half into a flat disk. Wrap both disks in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
• Thirty minutes before you're ready to roll out the dough, remove it from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature to soften. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the blueberry filling: In a bowl, toss the blueberries with the sugar, cornstarch and lemon zest and juice and mix until combined.
• Dust a worktop and rolling pin with flour. Roll out one dough disk a little less than 1¿4 inch thick, about 14 inches in diameter. Fold the dough in half and transfer it to a 9- or 10-inch pie plate. Unfold. Press the dough into the corners, leaving the overhang for now. Refrigerate the first crust while you roll out the second disk of dough.
• Remove the bottom crust from the refrigerator and fill it with the berry mixture. Tuck the pats of cold butter beneath the top layer of berries. Top with the second piece of dough, and trim both to a 1/2-inch overhang around the pie. Tuck the overhang into a roll and crimp the edge, pressing down to hook some of the dough over the edge of the dish, holding the pie. Cut a hole in the center of the pie, as well as some decorative vents.
• Brush the top of the pie with cream and dust it with sugar. Bake for 20 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F and bake for another 20 minutes. Cover the edges of the pie with foil and continue to bake until the center juices bubble and thicken, 25 to 35 minutes more.
• Let the pie cool until it is just warm to the touch before slicing and serving. Top with ice cream.

Peel off top parchment sheet; invert dough into 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Carefully peel off second parchment sheet. Gently press dough into pie dish, pressing any cracks together as needed to seal and leaving dough overhang. Spoon filling into pie crust.
• Roll out second dough disk between 2 sheets of generously floured parchment paper to 12-inch round. Peel off top parchment sheet. Carefully and evenly invert dough atop filling. Peel off second parchment sheet. Trim overhang of both crusts to 1 inch. Fold overhang under and press to seal. Crimp edges decoratively. Cut five 2-inch-long slits in top crust of pie to allow steam to escape during baking. Lightly brush top crust (not edges) with milk. Sprinkle with raw sugar.
