Ingredients
Scale
Cream Filling:
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
Crumb Topping:
- 2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup flour
Instructions
- Prepare the cream filling: In a bowl or mixer, combine 1 cup sugar and 1/3 cup flour until well mixed. Add in the sour cream, eggs, and vanilla and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the pie base: Place the 3 cups of fresh or frozen blueberries evenly into the pie crust. Pour the prepared cream filling evenly over the blueberries.
- Make the crumb topping: In a separate bowl, mix together brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour in melted butter and stir to combine. Gradually add flour while stirring until the mixture forms crumbly topping.
- Top the pie: Evenly distribute the crumb topping over the filled pie crust covering the cream filling and berries.
- Bake the pie: Bake in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 55 minutes. If the edges of the pie crust brown too quickly, cover them with tin foil partway through baking to prevent burning.
- Serve: Allow the pie to cool slightly, then serve warm with ice cream for a delicious dessert experience.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries – frozen should be thawed and drained for best results.
- Cover the edges of the pie crust with foil if they brown too fast during baking.
- Try substituting raspberries or mixed berries for a different fruity flavor.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for added indulgence.
- This pie is a hybrid between a traditional pie and a cobbler, offering a lovely crumbly texture on top.
