  • Perfect for Gatherings: A crowd-pleaser that looks impressive.
  • Make-Ahead Option: Prepare it in advance for convenience.

Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made 9-inch pie crust
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries (plus extra for garnish)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water

How to Make Blueberry Cream Pie

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pre-made pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and bake according to package instructions until golden brown, usually around 10-12 minutes. Let it cool completely.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 2 cups of blueberries, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of water. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring gently until the blueberries start to burst and release their juices.
  3. In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water to create a slurry. Add this to the blueberry mixture and cook for another 2-3 minutes until it thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt until smooth and creamy.
  5. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
  6. Spread the creamy filling evenly over the cooled pie crust. Then, spoon the cooled blueberry mixture on top, spreading it evenly over the creamy layer.
  7. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until set. Garnish with additional fresh blueberries before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier blending.
  • For an extra kick, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture.
  • Allow the pie to chill adequately for the filling to set properly.

Easy Variations

  • Substitute blueberries with raspberries or strawberries for a different berry flavor.
  • Add a layer of lemon curd underneath the cream layer for a citrus twist.
  • Top with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate for added indulgence.

What to Serve With It

  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic combo.
  • Fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor.
  • A drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra treat.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This pie is best served chilled and does not freeze well due to the cream filling.
