Serving Size: 1 Pie

12 ounces all-purpose flour

½ tsp sea salt

Blake Hill’s Wild Blueberry Pie Filling

Instructions

1

Preheat oven to 400 F; place baking tray in oven

2

Sift flour & salt into large bowl; thinly slice butter, toss in flour mix, and use fingertips to create pea-size crumbles, retain flecks of butter for a flaky crust

3

Mix in almonds, sugar, yolks & then buttermilk (enough to bind dough, but not make it sticky). With minimal kneading, make 2 disk shapes with dough, cover each in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes

4

Roll out dough disk 1, line 9-inch pie dish leaving 1-inch overhang, and fill with Blake Hill’s Wild Blueberry Pie Filling

5

Roll out disk 2, cut dough strips, lay half horizontally across pie, then fold alternate strips halfway back across the pie. Lay first vertical strip just off-center then lay horizontal strips back. Work across pie in similar manner until lattice design complete, then lift bottom crust’s overhang up to cover the ends of the lattice strips, & crimp with your favorite design.

6

Place pie on hot baking tray, bake 20 mins then reduce oven to 325 F and bake for 15-20 mins until crust is a deep golden brown. Fully cool pie, slice and Enjoy!
