Blueberry Cream Pie

There was pie the other day. Very simple, pre-made crust. Frozen berries. A little whipping and a little improvising and we had pie. Very tasty, but the texture was way off...sad sad sad frozen berries. Bummer. But again, the taste was great. Will certainly try it again with fresh blues.


Blueberry Cream Pie

Frozen blueberries mixed with a little sugar and some warm spices. Cinnamon, allspice, cloves, cardamom. This wasn't a part of the recipe, but I thought it would be fun. It was!

The blues are then mixed with a "cream" filling. Sour cream, cream cheese, eggs, vanilla and sugar.

Pour into a pre-made pie crust. Bake for awhile.

Before the pie is done, remove and sprinkle on the topping.

Remove from the oven and let cool. Refrigerate before serving so it's nice and chilled and it sets.

It's good for you right? Blueberries ARE healthy!

This past weekend we headed to C&S's for brunch. Good brunch. We enjoyed pie. Then last night C&S joined us for homemade pizza and games at our place. We enjoyed more pie. Mr. C brought one of the two pies he made last weekend. This was the better of the two! So good in fact, I had a second slice...and I have the whole second half of a pie waiting for me to enjoy this weekend!

Here's the adjusted/tweaked recipe:

UPDATED: some ingredients listed were corrected from original posting

Blueberry Cream Pie
Blend the following ingredients together until smooth; 4-5 minutes by hand, less with electric mixer:
1 cup sour cream
1 cup cream cheese
2 eggs
2 TB flour
¾ cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
¼ tsp salt

Gently fold in the following:
3 cups frozen or fresh blueberries

Pour the filling into a 9-inch pie shell (frozen, prepared or homemade)

Bake at 400 for 25-30 minutes.

Combine in a blender (until fine texture), the following to make the topping:
2 TB sugar
¼ cup chopped pecans

Remove pie from the oven. Spinkle with the topping over the pie. Return to the oven and bake for 10 minutes longer. Let cool.

Chill before serving. Serve with whipped cream.
