Mini Blueberry Pies

These mini blueberry pies are perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth. The flaky crust combined with the luscious blueberry filling creates the ultimate treat. Here’s how you can make them in your own kitchen!

Mini Blueberry Pies ### Ingredients

2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon butter, diced
1 package refrigerated pie crusts
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Sugar for sprinkling on top

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir gently until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Roll out the pie crusts on a floured surface and cut them into small circles to fit your mini pie pans. Press the dough into the pans.
Fill each crust with the blueberry mixture, making sure to divide it evenly. Dot each pie with small pieces of butter.
Cut out additional small circles or lattice strips from the remaining pie dough for the tops. Place them over the filling and seal the edges to contain the delicious filling.
Brush the tops with the beaten egg and sprinkle with a little sugar for a sweet, golden finish.
Bake the pies in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the crusts are golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Allow the mini blueberry pies to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!

These mini blueberry pies are not just a treat for the eyes but also for the taste buds! The perfect blend of sweet and tart flavors, paired with a buttery crust, ensures each bite is a delightful experience. Serve them for dessert at a family gathering or enjoy them with your morning coffee. Happy baking!
