Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 blueberries (fresh or frozen), 1 pint
- 1 pie dough, 13-inch
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup buttermilk
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- Confectioners sugar (for dusting)
Wet and Flavor Ingredients:
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Create a foundation for the pie by preparing a 9-inch pie dish with a light cooking spray coating at 325°F (165°C).
- Carefully drape the pie dough into the prepared dish, crimping the edges with elegant folds to create a decorative rim.
- Whisk together dry ingredients in a spacious mixing bowl, creating a smooth base for the custard mixture.
- Stream the melted butter into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously to develop a uniform consistency.
- Incorporate eggs one at a time, thoroughly blending each addition to ensure a silky, homogeneous texture.
- Pour in buttermilk and vanilla extract, whisking until the mixture transforms into a luxurious, glossy custard.
- Transfer the creamy mixture into the waiting pie crust, spreading it evenly to the edges.
- Delicately distribute fresh blueberries across the surface, allowing them to nestle gently into the custard landscape.
- Slide the pie into the preheated oven, baking for approximately one hour until the top achieves a golden-brown hue and the center sets with a subtle wobble.
- Allow the pie to cool completely, letting the custard settle and stabilize at room temperature.
- Just before serving, dust the surface with a delicate veil of confectioners sugar, creating a stunning visual and sweet finish.
Notes
- Whisk this dreamy custard pie together in under an hour for a delightful summer dessert that screams homemade comfort.
- Fresh blueberries nestled in a creamy buttermilk filling create a rustic, melt-in-your-mouth texture that transforms a simple pie into an extraordinary treat.
