Ingredients
- 1 pre-made 9-inch pie crust
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh blueberries, divided
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
How to Make Blueberry Cream Pie
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). If using a frozen pie crust, bake it according to package instructions until golden brown. Let it cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
- Spread the cream cheese filling evenly into the cooled pie crust. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
- While the pie sets, make the fresh blueberry sauce. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently, until the mixture thickens and bubbles, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the remaining 1 cup of fresh blueberries. Allow the sauce to cool completely before drizzling over the pie.
- Once the pie is set, top it with the fresh blueberry sauce. Slice and serve chilled.
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth filling.
- Don’t skip chilling time; it’s essential for the filling to set properly.
- Use fresh, ripe blueberries for the best flavor in the sauce.
- Adjust the sweetness of the sauce based on your preference by adding more or less sugar.
Easy Variations
- For a tangy twist, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the cream cheese filling.
- Swap out blueberries for raspberries or strawberries for a different berry pie.
- Add a layer of lemon curd beneath the cream cheese filling for a zesty surprise.
What to Serve With It
- A dollop of whipped cream on top for extra creaminess.
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent pairing.
- Fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness.
Storage and Reheating
Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator, tightly covered, for up to 3 days. The blueberry sauce can be stored separately in an airtight container for up to a week.
