Blueberry Tapioca Recipes

EASY BLUEBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Roll 1 pie dough into a 12-inch round and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate, leaving an overhang for now. Place the dough into the refrigerator while you make the filling.
• Mix the blueberries, sugar, tapioca, lemon zest and juice and salt in a large bowl until well combined. Remove the pie plate from the refrigerator and fill with the berry mixture. Dot the top of the pie with the butter. Top with the remaining pie dough, pressing around edge to adhere, and trim to a 1/2-inch overhang. Crimp the edge, then cut five vents in the center of the pie with a paring knife. Mix the egg with 1 tablespoon water, then brush the pie with the egg wash.
• Place the pie plate on the preheated baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F and continue baking until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling and the berries are beginning to burst, 30 to 35 minutes more. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack, about 2 hours.

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.
