Blueberry Pie

I remember eating my first ever blueberry pie many years ago when travelling the states.  Back then blueberries were rather scarce and I would certainly never have had enough to fill a pie.  Thankfully times have changed and we are very fortunate now to have delicious, plump blueberries grown locally and in abundance. 

This pie has a crisp, buttery crust which holds the juicy blueberry filling. It is delicious eaten straight from the oven with fresh cream. It is also one of life's great joys to have a slice the next day.

It’s just the perfect pie.
