How to Make Blueberry Pie A La Dr Weil

  1. Gently heat 4 cups of fresh blueberries in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Bring blueberries to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, gently stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and release their juices.
  3. Stir in 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Cook for 2 minutes more.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch (or arrowroot powder) and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth.
  5. Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the simmering blueberries, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
  6. Continue to cook and stir until the mixture thickens and becomes clear and glossy (about 1-2 minutes).
  7. Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely before spooning it into your prepared pie crust.
  8. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set completely before serving. Enjoy!
