Grandma's Recipes For Blueberry Pie Are Quick And Easy To Make

You will love these easy blueberry pie recipes. Blueberry pies are truly delicious, especially when made from fresh-picked blue berries and served warm from the oven with a generous scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream. They are so good!

My wife Vicki loves to pick the blueberries in season at a large blueberry farm near Orono, north of Lake Ontario. The ripe, plump berries are plentiful on high bushes, so you can pick them while standing, and they make awesome pies using these old-fashioned blue berry pie recipes.

Wash and dredge blueberries with flour; then scatter among them 1/2 cup sugar for each pint of berries. Fill paste shells with this, dot with butter, cover with another crust and bake.

These are richer than huckleberry or blueberry pies when made in the usual way, the flour thickening the juice slightly and the butter tempering the acid.

2-1/2 cups berries, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt, flour. Line a deep plate with plain paste, fill with berries slightly dredged with flour; sprinkle with sugar and salt, cover, and bake forty-five to fifty minutes in a moderate oven.

For sweetening, some prefer to use one-third molasses, the remaining two-thirds to be sugar. Six green grapes (from which the seeds have been removed) cut in small pieces much improve the flavor, particularly where huckleberries are used in place of blueberries.
