Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh or thawed blueberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- Unsalted butter (for brushing)
- Egg wash (1 egg, beaten) or almond/coconut milk for vegan option
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups of fresh or thawed blueberries, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Stir gently to coat the blueberries without crushing them. Set aside to let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes.
- If using homemade pie crust, roll it out on a lightly floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. If using store-bought, simply unroll it on a flat surface.
- Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles of dough about 4 inches in diameter. You should get about 12 circles from one crust.
- Place a tablespoon of the blueberry mixture in the center of each dough circle. Be careful not to overfill, as they might burst during baking.
- Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape or gather the edges together to form a pouch. Pinch the seams tightly to seal well.
- Place the filled bombs on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with an egg wash or your chosen alternative.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-baking.
- Once baked, allow the Blueberry Pie Bombs to cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes. Serve warm, and enjoy the burst of blueberry goodness!
