Birthday pie


When I made a cake for my mom I also decided I wanted to make a pie for my boyfriend's birthday. The bakery technically offers pies but they were rarely bought. So they got me some blueberries and looked for a decent pie crust recipe. We didn't have anything as far as pie fillings went, so I had to wing that.

I did a simple lattice design with a fresh blueberry filling. The pie is sitting in 2 deep dish pie plates, because to this day my pies over flow and make a mess on the tray they're sitting on. I was told, fill it up, the filling will bake down! More like out and over. It was really good, the berries held their shape and flavor well. It was so good I was asked to make another pie later for the bakery's display. I'm not sure if that tasted as good as the first one I made, but I was glad that I was given something to do besides bake more cookies.
