My blueberry pie recipe can be made with fresh or frozen blueberries and is made without tapioca. This is the best blueberry pie because of it is a two crust lattice topped pie and has a brightness of flavor that only fresh lemon zest can bring.

I use my favorite easy pie crust recipe for this, as well as other pies I make in my house. The is the same crust that makes an appearance in my black raspberry pie recipe as well as my apple cranberry pie.

Can I use frozen blueberries in this pie? 

If you can’t find fresh blueberries for this recipe you are welcome to use frozen blueberries. Blueberries are not always in season so finding them fresh is not always easy. Be sure to thaw the frozen berries at room temperature for about a half an hour. Be sure to add all the thawed juice to the pie. Be sure to learn how to freeze blueberries so you can have blueberry pie all year long!
