    Are you enjoying all of the fresh summer blueberries this year? They looked so good, I just had to make a homemade Fresh Blueberry Crumb Pie! I couldn't decide if I wanted whipped cream or ice cream, so I served both. It's too hot outside to be making so many complicated decisions, am I right?

    Just look at all those yummy blueberries topped with a cinnamon scented crumb topping and flaky pie crust!! Do you have a fork in your hand? Are you ready to dig in?

    You just need simple ingredients to make this recipe:

    a large white bowl filled with fresh blueberries, a bowl with crumb topping, small bowls with orange zest, sugar, flour, orange juice and a pie crust in a white pie pan.

    You can make your own crust, or purchase one at the grocery store.

    How to make a Fresh Blueberry Crumb Pie

    For Crust:

    Place flour, salt and butter into the bowl of a food processor, or in a bowl and use a pastry cutter and a large bowl.

    Pulse/mix ingredients until they resemble a coarse meal.

    Drizzle the cold water a Tablespoon at a time over the mixture. Continue to pulse to combine until mixture holds together. It should be evenly moist, but not wet.

    Place dough on well floured work surface, or place between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out to 1/8th inch thickness. Roll into desired size needed for your recipe. A bottom crust for a 9-inch pie is about 13-inches in diameter.

    Place in a pie pan, smooth out the bottom and side then crimp the edges around the rim.

    Place pie crust in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.

    Place pie on a parchment or silicone lined baking sheet and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, until filling is bubbling and topping is golden brown. Cover with foil if pie is browning too quickly.

    Remove pie from oven and place on a wire cooling rack.

    Recipe Notes & Tips

    • Use a regular 9-inch pie pan, not deep dish. My new pan is apparently deeper than my old pan and it left a gap at the top.
    • Pie can be baked 12 hours ahead of time. Let stand at room temperature until ready to serve.
    • Store leftover pie covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
    • Pie dough can be made up to 2 days ahead and chilled in the refrigerator until ready to use.
    • The most important part to remember when making pie crust is to use cold butter and cold water.

    To make a double-crust pie, double the pie crust ingredients and skip the crumb topping.

    Enjoy!!
