How to Make Blueberry Pie

  1. In a 2-quart saucepan, whisk together 2 cups whole milk, 2 large egg yolks, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons cornstarch until smooth.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens significantly (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Pour the custard into a shallow dish. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  4. While the custard chills, in a 3-quart saucepan, combine 2 cups fresh blueberries, 2/3 cup granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1 cup water.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently.
  6. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter until melted and incorporated.
  8. Let the blueberry filling cool slightly, then gently fold in 1 cup more fresh blueberries.
  9. Pour the chilled custard into your prepared pie crust.
  10. Top with the blueberry filling and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until the filling is completely set.
