Citrus Scented Blueberry Pie With Oatmeal Lattice Crust Recipes

Steps:

• Pate Brisee: Pulse flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor to combine. Pulse in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. With machine running, add 1/2 cup ice water in a slow, steady stream, just until dough holds together. To test, squeeze a small amount together; if it is crumbly, add up to 1/4 cup more ice water, a little at a time. Do not process more than 30 seconds.
• Turn out dough onto a clean surface and divide into three equal pieces. Place each on a piece of plastic, flatten into disks, and wrap tightly. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before using. Dough may be stored, frozen, up to 1 month.
• Filling: Preheat oven to 425 degrees with rack in center. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place on rack to preheat.
• In a medium bowl, gently toss together blueberries, lemon zest and juice, sugar, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, and butter.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of dough to a 13-inch round; fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Refrigerate while making lattice. Roll out a second disk of dough to an 11-inch square. Trim edges, then cut square into ten 1-inch-wide strips; repeat with remaining disk.
• Assemble lattice on a parchment-lined unrimmed baking sheet. You will be alternating between double strips of dough and a single strip to create this pattern. Lay two strips, touching one another, diagonally across the center of the parchment. Lay another strip on top of the two strips, going diagonally in the opposite direction. Continue weaving, following the pattern of double and single strips in opposite diagonal directions. You will need to fold back double strips as you work to lay the single strips, then unfold them to weave a lattice pattern. You may have some dough strips left over. Transfer sheet to freezer until lattice is well chilled, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer blueberry mixture to prepared pie dish. Brush edges of crust with egg wash. Place chilled lattice over filling; press edges to seal with bottom crust. Using kitchen shears, trim dough to a 1-inch overhang. Tuck overhang under so edges are flush with rim. Brush lattice with egg wash and sprinkle with sanding sugar.
• Bake on preheated baking sheet 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees and continue baking until filling is bubbling and crust is evenly browned (if browning too quickly, tent edges with foil), 60 to 75 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.

Steps:

• To make the crust, combine the flour, 2 teaspoons of sugar and salt in a large bowl. Use your fingers to rub in the butter and shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually and lightly mix in just enough ice water so the dough can be gently pressed into a ball. Flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• To make the filling, preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Combine the sugar, cinnamon, flour and orange zest. Place the blueberries in a large bowl and toss with the sugar mixture.
• Divide the dough in half and roll out 1 piece on a lightly floured surface and fit into a 9-inch pie plate. Place the filling in the dish. Roll out the remaining dough, cut 1/2-inch-wide strips and weave into a lattice top. Seal, trim and crimp the edges. Brush the top pastry with the egg wash and sprinkle it with the remaining sugar.
• Bake for 30 minutes. Reduce temperature to 325 and bake until crust is browned and filling is set, about 20 minutes longer. Cool on a rack. Cut into wedges and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar.
• Stir in flour, salt and oats.
• Mix until well combined.
• Pat 2/3 of the mixture into an ungreased 9 inch pie pan to form the bottom crust.
• Spread blueberries evenly into crust.
• Pat the remaining oat mixture onto top of blueberries.
• Bake in preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes.

Steps:

• Make Crust:.
• Whisk 4 ½ TB ice water and egg yolk in a small bowl to blend.
• Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, lemon peel and salt in food processor; blend for 30 seconds.
• Add butter and shortening pieces and process until mixture looks like coarse meal.
• Add water/egg yolk mixture and pulse until moist clumps form. Remove dough from processor.
• Gather dough together with hands; divide into 2 pieces, 1 slightly larger than the other. Flatten into disks, wrap each in plastic and chill 1 hour or up to 1 day. Let soften slightly at room temperature before rolling.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Roll out larger dough disk on floured surface to 12" or 13" round. Transfer dough to 9" or 10" glass pie pan.
• Fold overhanging dough under, forming double-thick rim. Crimp, forming a high-standing rim. Brush inside of crust (below rim) lightly with beaten egg glaze. Freeze crust for 15 minutes.
• Roll out remaining dough disk on floured surface to 12" round. Cut into ½ inch wide strips with pastry wheel; set aside.
• Make Filling:.
• Mix 1 cup sugar, cornstarch, orange or lemon peel, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Add berries and preserves, and toss to blend. Avoid crushing berries if possible.
• Remove pie shell from freezer. Mound berry filling into crust. Place dough strips atop pie, forming lattice. Trim excess. Gently press strip ends to crust rim. Brush lattice with beaten egg glaze. Sprinkle with remaining tablespoon of sugar.
• Place pie on baking sheet lined with foil. Bake in preheated oven until crust is golden brown and filling bubbles thickly in center, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
• Cover edges with a foil collar if it appears to be browning too quickly. Cool on rack.
• Serve lukewarm or at room temperature, with vanilla ice cream.
• Happy Birthday!

Steps:

• Make crust:
• Whisk 4 1/2 tablespoons ice water and yolk in small bowl to blend. Blend flour, oats, brown sugar, lemon peel and salt in processor 30 seconds. Add butter and shortening and process until coarse meal forms. Add yolk mixture and process using on/off turns until moist clumps form. Gather dough together; divide into 2 pieces, 1 slightly larger than the other. Flatten into disks; wrap each in plastic and chill 1 hour or up to 1 day. Let soften slightly at room temperature before rolling.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll out larger dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer dough to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Fold overhang under, forming double-thick rim. Crimp, forming high-standing rim. Freeze 15 minutes.
• Line crust with foil. Fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake 10 minutes. Remove foil and beans. Continue to bake until crust is set and looks dry, about 8 minutes. Cool to room temperature. Maintain oven temperature.
• Roll out remaining dough disk on floured surface to 12-inch round. Cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips.
• Make filling:
• Mix 1 cup sugar, cornstarch, orange peel and nutmeg in large bowl. Add all berries and preserves and toss to blend.
• Mound filling in crust. Place dough strips atop pie, forming lattice; trim excess. Gently press strip ends to crust. Brush lattice with glaze. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Place pie on baking sheet. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling bubbles thickly in center, covering edges with foil collar if browning too quickly, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool on rack. Serve lukewarm or at room temperature edges with aluminum foil collar if browning too quickly, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer pie to rack and cool. Serve pie lukewarm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Position rack in lowest third of oven and preheat to 400°F. Combine first 6 ingredients in large bowl. Crush a few berries in bowl with back of rubber spatula; toss to blend. Let stand until dry ingredients are moistened, about 15 minutes.
• Roll out 1 pie-crust disk on lightly floured surface to 12 1/2-inch round. Transfer to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Trim dough overhang to 3/4 inch. Spoon filling into crust. Roll out second pie-crust disk on lightly floured surface to 12-inch round. Using scalloped pastry cutter, cut dough into generous 1/2-inch-wide strips. Arrange dough strips across top of filling. Form lattice by arranging more dough strips at right angle to first strips, weaving strips if desired. Trim dough strips even with overhang on bottom crust. Tuck ends of dough strips and overhang under; press to seal. Crimp edges decoratively. Brush edges and lattice lightly with whipping cream.
• Place pie on baking sheet. Bake 40 minutes. Cover crust edges with foil to prevent overbrowning. Continue to bake until filling bubbles thickly in center, about 50 minutes longer. Cool pie on rack at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
