Are you tired of seeing apple desserts at every turn? Then this is the recipe for you! I’ve previously shared a mini apple pie recipe, but to change things up, this dessert uses blueberries. It is important to keep the dough chilled, as this ensures that the crust is flaky. Try these pies before the blueberry season is over!

Mini Blueberry Pies

Crust:

-2 cups flour

-2/3 cup butter, chilled

-1/2 tsp. salt

-4 tbsp. water

Blueberry Filling:

-1 cup blueberries 

-1/2 tablespoon flour

-1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

-1 1/2 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 425ºF and grease muffin pan.

2. For the crust, mix together flour, salt and butter until it looks like little peas.

3. Add in water and mix just until it looks like it’s sticking. Take out and combine it by hand until well blended.

4. Roll out on a lightly floured surface until about 1/4 inch thick. Cut 12, 4 inch circles with cup or bowl. Use the rest of the crust for the top of the pies.

5. In a medium bowl, mix the blueberries, sugar, flour, and cornstarch, tossing with hands or a large spoon. 

6. Press each circle in muffin tins until all the way up each side, to form little bowls. Mix by hand all filling ingredients and spoon into muffin tin.

7. Bake for 16-18 minutes (until crust is light brown) and let cool completely.
