Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
Main Ingredient
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries, washed and dried
For Greasing
- Nonstick cooking spray or butter
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish thoroughly using nonstick cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder until evenly combined.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, melted and cooled butter, vanilla extract, and almond extract if using. Ensure this mixture is smooth and homogenous.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined, forming a batter.
- Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the batter, taking care not to break them and to distribute evenly.
- Bake the Pie: Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish and spread out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool in the dish for at least 20 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Frozen blueberries can be used if thawed and drained well to avoid excess moisture affecting the bake.
- For a less sweet pie, reduce the sugar amount to 3/4 cup.
- This pie is excellent served warm and pairs beautifully with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
