With just 10 minutes of active time and an additional few hours to chill, No-Bake Blueberry Pie is the perfect anytime desert. We used a combination of frozen blueberries for the cooked filling and added fresh blueberries to finish. Great topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups blueberries, divided (any combination of fresh and frozen works well, use at least 1 cup of fresh for final step)

  • 1/2 – 3/4 cup of sugar

  • 3 T cornstarch

  • 1/4 cup water

  • 1 Tbs butter

  • 1-2 tsp lemon juice

  • 1 pre-made graham cracker crust

Main Ingredient(s): Blueberries

Steps:

  • Wash fresh blueberries, remove any stems. Set aside 1-2 cups for final step.

  • In a medium-size saucepan, combine sugar and remaining blueberries. Over medium heat, bring to a boil; stirring occasionally. Roughly 3-5 minutes.

  • Using a fork or whisk, mix cornstarch and water until fully combined and lump free. Add mixture to boiling blueberry mixture, stirring continually. Continue to cook and stir until thickened. Roughly 3-5 minutes.

  • Once thickened, remove from heat and add butter and lemon juice. Mix well to combine.

  • Fold in the fresh blueberries that were set aside. Once combined pour immediately into the prepared crust. Gently spread filling evenly to edges.

  • Refrigerate for 2-3 hours until fully set.

  • Enjoy with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream or both!
