Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup butter
- 2-3 tablespoons water
- 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon rind
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Prepare Pie Crust: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in enough water with a fork just until the flour is moistened. Shape the dough into a ball and flatten it slightly.
- Roll Out Dough: Roll out the ball of dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Fold it into quarters.
- Place Dough in Pie Pan: Place the dough into a 9-inch pie pan; unfold it, pressing firmly against the bottom and sides. Trim the crust to 1/2 inch from the edge of the pan. Crimp or flute the edge.
- Pre-Bake Crust: Fill the unbaked pie crust with dry beans and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until almost done.
- Prepare Filling: In a medium bowl, beat the egg yolks at medium speed. Stir in the condensed milk, lemon rind, and lemon juice until well combined.
- Bake Filling: Pour the filling into the baked crust and bake for another 8 minutes. Let it cool.
- Prepare Blueberry Sauce: In a saucepan, cook down the blueberries with sugar and water. Bring it to a boil, then let it simmer for a few minutes. Dissolve cornstarch in a tablespoon of water, then add it to the saucepan. Bring the mixture back to a boil until it thickens.
- Assemble Pie: Top the pie with the prepared blueberry sauce. Let it cool and chill for one hour.
- Serve: Serve the lemon blueberry pie at room temperature and enjoy!
