Tuesdays with Dorie: Double Crusted Blueberry Pie This week’s selection came from Amy of South in Your Mouth and it was perfect for our 4th of July cookout. This was the first time I had made my own ‘true’ pie crust. I have a small food processor but even when I halved the dough recipe it was still too much to fit into processor so I ended up using my hands (again). I really, really need to buy a pastry blender. The dough turned out fine, just like the book says. I made my dough on Thursday afternoon and refrigerated it until I was ready to make the pie on Friday morning. It was really difficult for me to roll out the dough because it was very hard and cold. But my strong-armed husband helped me roll it out and it was just right. I used fresh blueberries (on sale this past week, score!) and put about 1 ¼ cup of sugar in the berries, with a little extra lemon zest than the recipe called for. The smell of the baking pie was delicious, the whole house smelled like pie. Everyone at the cookout really liked it too, I had vanilla ice cream on hand for people who wanted their pie “a la mode”. It wasn’t too sweet either; it had just the right amount of sweetness in the crust and the filling. The only ‘complaint’ I had was that the filling produced a lot of soupy-ness, it didn’t affect the crust (probably because of the breadcrumbs which were totally undetectable) but there was a lot of it after I cut the first slice. Other than that it was a really good pie and a really good experience. I’ll definitely use the crust recipe again with a different fruit, I imagine cherry or apple would be fantastic too.
P.S. Blogger is not my friend this morning because my font size and formatting is all wonky, sorry! Posted by April Labels: TWD 
Your pie looks adorable with the little heart on top! Mine was a little juicy, too, so I think I'll go with apple next time myself but I had fun trying something new.

Good for your husband helping out!
 
That's a cute little heart cut out in the middle. I agree, this crust was fabulous, and I will be using it again (even though I tweaked it a bit.)
 
Lucky you that you have someone who's willing to help roll the dough out - my boyfriend refuses :) It looks delicious!
 
Adorable pie! I did a heart on mine too :) So sweet that your husband helped roll the dough!
 
Your pie looks so cute! Great pics. I'm glad you liked the pie!
 
Kudos to hubby for helping you out! Your pie looks delicious, this crust is definitely a keeper!
 
Your pie is beautiful. Don't know why it was so soupy. Sorry!
 
flaketastic crust..and love the heart shaped cutout and the FRESH blueberry shot. fabulous!
 
i love your little heart cut out :) i found that my pie was runny but only immediately after it was taken out - after it had cooled completely, it congealed nicely
 
Beautiful pictures. Cute heart cut out. Glad you liked the pie! Great job.
