This blueberry crumb pie recipe has a fresh blueberry filling + a brown sugar crumb topping. It comes from viewer Daniella Cangiano, who we surprised with a visit from her baking idol Buddy Valastro on our show 9 years ago—and again, today, with a virtual surprise. Together with her family—and members of the Facebook group she created with her family, "Quarantine Kitchen"—Daniella put together a book called In The Quarantine Kitchen, inspired by pandemic cooking + baking adventures. 

Dani's Tip: My favorite way to enjoy this pie is to warm a day-old slice in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds and then scoop vanilla ice cream on top!

Ingredients

For the filling:
  • 1 homemade or store-bought pie crust, thawed if needed
  • 5½ cups fresh blueberries, rinsed and drained
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup flour
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons water
For the crumb topping:
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 stick butter, softened

Yield

Serves: Makes one 9-inch pie

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400˚F. For the filling, in a large bowl, combine blueberries, granulated sugar, flour, cornstarch, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons water.

Line a 9-inch pie pan with the crust and dock the surface gently with a fork to keep the crust from puffing up during baking. Pour in the blueberry filling. 

For the crumb topping, in a bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar and butter with a fork until large crumbs form. Sprinkle over the blueberry filling. 

Place the pie on a lined baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, cover the pie with a sheet of foil. (This prevents the crumbs from burning.) Lower the oven to 375˚˚F and bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 3 hours, allowing the pie to set before serving.
