Country Blueberry Pie

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


My husband’s family is a “pie family”. There is pie at every gathering that I have been to. This blueberry pie was just perfect. It wasn’t too sweet or too starchy like blueberry pies can be if you overdo it on the cornstarch. This recipe also didn’t call for tapioca. I prefer recipes that use ingredients on hand so I don’t have to make a special trip to the store, and for me, tapioca isn’t a pantry staple.
