Blueberry-Lime Pie

8 ingredients
12 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 basic flaky double crust pie crust, refrigerated (enough for double crust)
  • 1 (16 ounce) bag frozen blueberries, partially thawed (not packed in syrup)
  • 13 cup thawed frozen limeade concentrate
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
  • 1 teaspoon grated lime zest
  • milk or light cream
  • sugar

Directions

  1. 1
    Roll out pie pastry and set into a 9-inch pie pan; place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  2. 2
    Preheat oven to 400.
  3. 3
    In a big bowl, combine the blueberries, limeade, sugar, tapioca, and lime zest; mix well but try not to crush the berries; set aside.
  4. 4
    Roll out top pie pastry.
  5. 5
    Turn filling into the chilled pie shell; smooth the top with a spoon.
  6. 6
    Lightly moisten the rim of the pie shell with a wet finger or pastry brush.
  7. 7
    Place top pastry over the filling; press the top and bottom pastries together along the dampened edge.
  8. 8
    Trim pastry and crimp/flute as desired; poke several steam vents in the top of the pie with a fork or paring knife; put a couple of vents near the edge of the crust so you can check the juices there later.
  9. 9
    Brush the top of the pie lightly with milk and sprinkle with sugar.
  10. 10
    Place the pie on the center oven rack; bake for 30 minutes; decrease oven temp to 375; rotate pie 180; slide a foil-lined baking sheet onto the rack below to catch any drips.
  11. 11
    Continue baking about 20-25 mintues, until the top of the pie is a golden brown and any juices visible at the steam vents bubble thickly (**tent crust with foil if starts to get too brown).
  12. 12
    Transfer pie to a wire rack; let cool at least 2 hours before serving.
