If you ask me, blueberries are one of the best parts of summer. I love to make some sweet treats with fresh berries for the summer holidays.
Some of my favorite blueberry recipes are Banana Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins and this Air Fryer Sourdough Blueberry Bread.

This is a quick overview of the instructions to make this recipe. You can find the full steps in the recipe card.
In a bowl combine the blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla until well coated.
Roll out the pie crusts and use a cookie cutter or glass to cut out 12 circles. Then press the dough into the muffin tin. Fill with blueberries.
Roll out the second crust and cut it into strips. Layer the strips on a lattice pattern on each pie. Then brush with the egg wash.
Bake in a 375 degree preheated oven for 18 – 20 minutes.
Storage
Storage – Store your mini blueberry pies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Freezing – You can also freeze the pies for later. I like to wrap each pie gently in two layers of plastic wrap, and then one layer of aluminum foil.
Wendy’s Test Kitchen Tips
- I like to use refrigerated pie crust to save a little time in the kitchen, you can use your favorite homemade 9-inch pie crust also.
- Don’t skip the egg wash on top of your pies, this will give them a beautiful color.
- If you don’t have a round cookie cutter, try using the rim of a glass or mason jar.
FAQs
