“Blue Steel” Blueberry Pie

This blueberry pie is as Texan as the vast blue skies. A classic golden pie crust brimming with fresh blueberries, with just enough sugar to make you smile. A hint of vanilla and lemon give the classic a bit of a twist, the whole thing latticed with more crust. If you don’t have it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, you are missing out.

Baking out of a remodeled 1930’s Victorian bungalow in the Bishop Arts District in Dallas, Texas, Megan Wilkes and Mary Gauntt are creating beautiful, handmade pies with local and seasonal ingredients at Emporium Pies. Since 2011, the artisanal pie maker has been putting a fun, imaginative twist on classic pie flavors like Lord of the Pies and The Drunken Nut.
