Blueberry Lattice Pie
- 2 pints blueberries
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon ground
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg freshly grated
- 2 tablespoons butter, unsalted
- Prepare and chill the dough.
- To make the filling, combine 1 cup of the blueberries with the sugar in a nonreactive saucepan.
- Bring to a simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is melted and the mixture is very liquid about 5 minutes.
- Combine the cornstarch and water in a small bowl and whisk the blueberry and sugar mixture into it.
- Return everything to the pan and cook, stirring constantly, over low heat, until the mixture comes to a boil, thickens and becomes clear.
- If it does not become clear, continue to cook over low heat for a few more minutes, until it does.
- Pour into a large bowl and stir in the remaining filling ingredients, except the blueberries, then add the remaining 3 cups blueberries.
- Cool.
- Set a rack at the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 400F (200C).
- Roll out the bottom crust and arrange in pan.
- Pour the cooled filling into the bottom crust.
- Prepare a lattice top crust.
- Flute the edge of the pie and carefully brush it with egg wash.
- If you wish, sprinkle the top of the pie with sugar.
- Place the pie in the oven on the lower rack and reduce the temperature to 375F (190C).
- Bake for about 40 minutes, until the crust is baked through and a deep golden brown and the filling is gently bubbling.
- If the top crust has not colored sufficiently after 30 minutes of baking, move the pie to the upper rack of the oven for the last 10 minutes.
- Cool the pie on a rack.
