Mini Blueberry Skillet Pies

Ingredients
  

Filling

  • 2 T. cornstarch
  • 1/4- ½ cup sugar last time I used 1/2c. but next time I will use 1/4c. Taste yours and slowly add sugar
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Crust
  • Use my homemade crust or store bought for a shortcut

Egg wash (one egg plus a tsp water, mixed well)

  • Sanding Sugar

Instructions
 

Filling

  • In a heavy, medium saucepan, stir the cornstarch and sugar to remove clumps.
  • Add water, lemon and blueberries.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until thick. This will take approx 5 mins.
  • Remove from heat and cool. Can be made ahead of time and stored in fridge.

Pie

  • Preheat oven to 375 and I lay a cookie sheet inside to hold the skillets.
  • Divide filling into 2 mini Lodge cast iron skillets.
  • Roll out pie dough.
  • Cut a square of pie dough to fit top and lay over berries.
  • Brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Bake at 375 for 20 mins. Then I raised the temp to 425 for another 10 mins to brown the top. The filling will be bubbling hot, be careful removing from the oven.
