Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup plus 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 Monument Cafe All Butter Pie Crust, recipe follows
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Toss the blueberries, granulated sugar, 1/3 cup flour, cinnamon and lemon juice in a bowl. Place the filling in the Monument Cafe All Butter Pie Crust.
Combine the remaining 3/4 cup flour, brown sugar and butter and mix to a coarse meal. Scatter over top of the pie.
Bake the pie until the juices thicken and the pie is golden brown, about 50 minutes. Tent the pie with foil if needed to prevent over-browning. Let the pie rest 30 minutes prior to serving.

I have made six of these; it's wonderful recipe. I have a few suggestions for home baking: 1. Use fresh blueberries, if at all possible. 2. When mixing the filling, mush about 25% of the berries to blend into the flour, sugar and the rest. 3. Since 1.25 cups is only about 6 ounces, I'd increase that to 1.5 or 1.75 cups (6 to 9 oz. for a slightly more pronounced blueberry flavor, perhaps increasing the lemon juice by another teaspoon. 4. I used some of the lemon zest to add to some whip cream (1 c. cream and 1/4 c sugar, whipped for a topping.
I too have used pre-made pie crusts, but look forward to trying the Monument Cafe's crust recipe.

Hands down the best pie I've ever made. My husband is now constantly asking me to make it. I use a store bought crust when short on time.
