There is something deeply satisfying about a homemade blueberry pie, and this version delivers everything you want ā a shatteringly flaky butter crust, a jammy filling bursting with sweet-tart berries, and that golden, sugar-dusted top that makes it almost too pretty to cut. Lupin flour has quietly crept into a surprising number of commercial baked goods and pie crusts as a protein booster, so store-bought options can be genuinely tricky to navigate. Here, the crust is built entirely from all-purpose flour, cold butter, and ice water ā nothing unusual, nothing hidden. The filling leans on cornstarch rather than any alternative flour to thicken those gorgeous blueberries, so every component stays clean and straightforward. Cooking the filling on the stovetop before it goes into the shell is a smart move that guarantees a set, sliceable pie rather than a soupy mess. The two-stage bake ā starting hot, then dropping the temperature ā gives you a deeply bronzed crust without scorching, and the full two-hour rest at the end is non-negotiable if you want those clean, glossy slices. This is the kind of pie that earns recipe-card status and gets requested every single summer.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 tbsp granulated sugar, and 1 tsp salt. Add the chilled butter cubes and work them into the flour using your fingertips or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized butter pieces remaining.
Drizzle in ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork after each addition, until the dough just holds together when pressed ā it should not be sticky or wet. Divide the dough into two equal discs, wrap each in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
