Classic Blueberry Pie (Gluten-Free If You Like)

Blueberry Pie On Plate With Fork

Blueberry pie is one of my favorite summer treats and the first thing I make when blueberries come into season. My mom was a wonderful pie baker, and I've always loved pie more than cake. It showcases the luscious beauty of summer fruit.

When I lived in Chicago, my friend Douglas used to organize blueberry picking parties every summer. We'd drive over to Michigan and spend the afternoon picking, then come home and start making treats like pie and ice cream.

While I can't pick blueberries here in Southern California, I do love to pick up some and make at least one pie when they're in season.

First things first, here are two recipe options for pie crusts:

Regular Pie Crust

  • 1/3 cup oil (corn or canola)
  • 1 1/3 cup flour
  • 3 tablespoons milk


Gluten-Free Pie Crust

  • 1/3 cup oil
  • 1 1/3 cup GF baking mix
  • 1 tablespoon xanthan gum
  • 4 tablespoons soy or rice milk
