How to Make Lemon Blueberry Cream Pie

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup cornstarch.
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups whole milk (or dairy-free milk alternative for dairy-free version), 2 large egg yolks, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter or vegan butter, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
  3. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil.
  4. Continue whisking for 2 minutes more.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice.
  6. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
  7. Refrigerate until completely cool (at least 2 hours).
  8. Once cool, gently fold in 1 cup sour cream (or dairy-free alternative) and 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries.
  9. Pour the filling into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  10. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set completely.
  11. For the topping (optional): Gently fold a tablespoon of lemon zest into 1 cup of sweetened whipped cream (dairy-free whipped topping can be used for dairy-free version).
  12. Pipe or spoon the whipped cream topping onto the chilled pie.
  13. Garnish with fresh lemon slices, if desired.
