Wonderful way to use my freshly picked blueberries

Just made this pie. I didn't have enough blueberries so I used about 3 cups of blackberries for a total of 5 cups of fruit. The key to this recipe is the pre-baked pie shell and cooking the fruit on the stovetop. I tried another recipe from tasteofhome and that one called for uncooked berries and uncooked pie shell in addition to other similar ingredients. What a gloppy mess! I ended up throwing the pie out in one day after baking. My son is eyeing this pie while it cools in the refrigerator. I don't think there will be much left by tomorrow. Thanks for an easy and foolproof recipe. You can really use this recipe for any type of berry.

Very good, but needed maybe a tablespoon more cornstarch to keep from running.

The recipe printed in the magazine says one pastry shell, BAKED - that's the mistake on the one above...hope this helps!

Hasn't anyone noticed that you put the

RAW pie crust in the pie pan, add the blueberry filling, and refrigerate until serving.

Surely you have to BAKE the crust--either before or after adding the filling.

I've always made two crust blueberry pie.

This was easy to make and tasted great! Delicious with some whipped cream.

We love this pie, but I have to use an extra tablespoon of cornstarch or it will be runny. We grow our own blueberries; not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Fabulous - I make it every summer. We have lots of saskatoons, not blueberries though. Still turns out great!

This recipe was simply wonderful. Quick and easy to make. I have a fairly large household so made two.... not even crumbs crumbs remained. Thanks for the great recipe!
