Instructions
Get the Oven Ready
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Blueberry Bliss
Toss those luscious blueberries in a bowl with sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, and juice. Let it sit and soak up all that flavor.
Crust Creation
In another bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in butter until it’s like a coarse meal. Sprinkle in the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, and stir until it forms a dough. Time to chill for 15 minutes.
Roll & Fill
Roll out the dough on a floured surface, aiming for a rough 12-inch circle. Place it on the prepared baking sheet. Mound the blueberry filling in the center, leaving a 2-inch border.
Fold & Finish
Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, overlapping slightly. Brush the crust with milk or cream and sprinkle with coarse sugar for that extra sparkle.
Bake to Perfection
Pop it in the oven for 35-40 minutes, until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling. Let it cool slightly before slicing into this heavenly delight.
Notes
Ingredient Quality
Using fresh blueberries will enhance the flavor, but frozen berries work great too. Just ensure they are thawed and drained.
Serving Suggestions
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a decadent treat.
