Method

Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Add the cubed unsalted butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  2. 2

    Add Ice Water

    Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing with a fork until the dough comes together. You may not need all the water.

  3. 3

    Chill the Dough

    Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Filling

    In a medium bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Gently toss until the blueberries are evenly coated.

Assembling and Baking the Pie

  1. 5

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 6

    Roll Out the Dough

    On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Carefully transfer the dough to the pan and trim any excess.

  3. 7

    Add the Filling

    Pour the blueberry filling into the pie crust, spreading it evenly.

  4. 8

    Bake the Pie

    Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

  5. 9

    Cool the Pie

    Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Serving

  1. 10

    Serve with Topping

    Slice the pie and serve each slice topped with whipped cream and garnished with fresh mint leaves.
