Filling Preparation
- 1
Prepare Blueberry Filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Gently toss the mixture until the blueberries are evenly coated. Set aside to let the mixture thicken for about 15 minutes.
Crust Preparation
- 2
Make the Pie Crust
In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Top the Pie
Roll out the second dough disc and place it over the blueberry filling. You can either cut slits for a lattice effect or simply cover it entirely. Seal the edges by crimping with your fingers or a fork.

Bake the Pie
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning; if the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil.

Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
