Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, cubed
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
  • 1 pastry shell (9 inches), baked
  • 3 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup orange juice

Directions

  1. In a saucepan, combine eggs, sugar, butter, lemon juice and zest; cook, stirring constantly, over medium-low heat until mixture is thickened, about 20 minutes. Cool for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour into pie shell.
  2. In a saucepan, toss blueberries and sugar. Combine the cornstarch and orange juice until smooth; add to blueberries.

Blueberries
If using frozen blueberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the batter.
