Blueberries And Cream Pie With No Roll Pie Crust Recipes

Steps:

• For the crust: In a food processor, pulse the cookies until they form coarse crumbs. Add the butter, sugar and salt and pulse until the mixture is combined.
• Press the mixture evenly into the base and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Transfer to the freezer and freeze until firm, at least 30 minutes (see Cook's Note).
• While the crust chills, macerate the berries for the filling: In a medium bowl, mash the berries gently with a potato masher. Add the lemon juice, salt and 1/2 cup of the sugar. Let macerate, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes. The mixture should become visibly juicy.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the cream cheese and remaining 1/2 cup sugar for 1 to 2 minutes. With the mixer running, gradually add the cream, then the vanilla. Whip to medium peaks.
• Use the potato masher to mash the blueberry mixture again. Gently fold the blueberry mixture into the cream mixture, then spoon the filling into the frozen pie crust and spread into an even layer.
• Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours before serving and up to 24 hours. If desired, decorate the pie by gently pressing fresh blueberries in an even layer on the surface.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F, lightly grease 9-inch pie pan with nonstick spray (glass preferred).
• In a medium bowl: mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• In a large bowl: whisk together eggs, milk, yogurt, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
• Add flour mixture to wet mixture, whisk to combine. Mixture should be smooth without clumps.
• Gradually add blueberries to mixture and gently stir to coat berries.
• Pour into pie pan and bake pie in oven for 30-40 minutes at 350F (Stop after 20 minutes to add topping, if desired).
• (Optional topping) While pie is baking, finely crush graham crackers in a bowl. Add sugar and cinnamon and mix well. Melt butter in microwave and slowly pour over graham cracker mixture as you stir. Butter should coat entire mixture and clump together.
• (Optional topping) After 20 minutes in the oven, remove pie and evenly distribute graham cracker mixture over the top. Increase oven temperature to 375F to help brown topping.
• Put back in oven and bake for remaining 10-20 minutes, or until knife inserted into center of pie comes out fairly clean except for juices from berries.
• Let cool, serve, and enjoy.
