Hooray for Blueberries

July 10, 2008 By Carole

Apparently my aversion to cooking when it’s hot doesn’t apply to baking. Or maybe I’m just a sucker for fresh blueberries.

The other day it was blueberry muffins. I used red sugar to make them patriotic but otherwise they are the same as the ones I posted about back here.

Yesterday it was blueberry pie. I just adore blueberry pie and really, once the pie crust is made the rest is simple as can be. Combine 3 pints of blueberries with 4-5 T of cornstarch and a cup of sugar, throw it in the pie crust, bake and you’re done.

I like mine with vanilla ice cream. Mmmmm.

Raise your hand if you want some!

    Yoo Hoo! Over here! Both of my hands are up! Blueberry pie is my favorite pie. Especially with vanilla ice-cream.

    Is there any left? Yum!

    I’d like mine delivered hot with the ice cream melted just so.

    Blueberry pie is my absolute favorite. The pictures look good enough to eat! (I see what you mean about your camera…)

    Me first! (jumping up and down) Both my hands are raised. I have 3 blueberry shrubs in my back yard, and the birds beat me to them every morning. I’m getting my blueberry fix from the produce stand this year.

    Oh YUM. What a great idea! The blueberries are coming fast and furious at the farmstand. I think I’ll do muffins.

    Blueberries! Yum yum yum yum. I have 2 pints in my fridge for straight up snacking…

    Right now I look like “Arnold Horshack”! I’m a SUCKER for blueberries…especially blueberry pie!!!!!!!!

  12. Jackie says

    July 10, 2008 at 10:25 am

    My hand is raised!! Real blueberry pie is one of my most favorite things in the world – and it definitely needs the creamy goodness of vanilla ice cream to make it perfect.

    We just got a quart of blueberries from the CSA and I’m wondering the best way to use them (last week’s quart went handful by handful into my morning cereal…)

  13. Nora says

    July 10, 2008 at 10:25 am

    Blueberries rock! I like them in a crisp, too, with real whipped cream. Heavenly!

    I have some in the freezer!! Maybe I’ll make some muffins for the car ride up to pick up Kathryn from camp. Fresh muffins in the car, thermos of coffee, two grrrlfriends! And I don’t have to drive!

    July 10, 2008 at 10:36 am

    Can I raise both hands if I want 2 helpings? I love me some blueberrie pan with vanilla ice cream. Yummmmmy!

    You know, I don’t think I’ve ever had a piece of blueberry pie. Shocking, I know.

    Because it’s just now turned into summer here the berries are very late and expensive. I have wonderful memories of blueberry picking in the woods as a child. The woods even smelled of berries!

  20. Kim says

    July 10, 2008 at 11:26 am

    Mmmm. I love blueberry pie.

    I made one a couple of weeks ago, pretty much just like your, but I added a grated 1-inch piece of ginger to the berries. So. Good.

  21. Imbrium says

    July 10, 2008 at 11:45 am

    Yes, please.

    Blueberries always make me think of my mother. My mother loves fresh blueberries, and I have wonderful memories of sitting across the kitchen table from my mom, sharing a bowl of blueberries in cream with her.

    I think I’ll call my mother today.

  22. Ina says

    Both hands raised, hoping for pie for breakfast!

  23. Cookie says

    Carole, they all look wonderful. I doubt I’ll ever get a pie’s worth of berries off my bushes.

  24. Leslie says

    July 10, 2008 at 12:29 pm

    Aw, I’m probably too late for a piece of that pie. It looks delicious!

  25. michelle says

    My hand is up and I’m jumping up and down. Me,me,me! That looks so delicious! Really wishing for smellivision right now :_

    We have been living on blueberries for months out here. Pie, coffee cake, mixed with raspberries and strawberries and yogurt… They are VERY good for a person’s heart. Virtuous *and* yummy!

    Hmmm….blueberry pie is my most favorite pie. I also love blueberry cake with a hot lemon sauce…yum.

    July 15, 2008 at 3:32 pm

    Me! Me!

    We ate a most scrumptious blueberry pie at a gathering on Sunday and my family would so like me to bake one, but I can’t make a good pie crust. Pretty please, will you share your crust recipe?

  35. jill says

    July 15, 2008 at 9:56 pm

    Carol ~ I just had drinks out with gibknits and was telling her how my daughter used your recipe for our pie a few nights ago. Halle had the computer set up in the kitchen. She made her first ever crust (sans pillsbury) and followed your berry filling notes. We had THE best berry pie. And my girl was so proud of herself. Much thanks!

This loaf took about 24 hours from start to finish, it was sluggish at first so I waited patiently and adjusted my timeline. It rested in the banneton on the kitchen windowsill overnight and I baked it when I got up this morning. Oven spring was impressive, it’s got a good ear and a nice open crumb. It tastes good, too! #sourdoughbread #sourdoughbaking #lookatthatear #nicecrumb #ovenspring #homemadeisbest #breadforbreakfast #morningbaking #the100dayproject #100daysofiphonephotos
