Lazy Holiday Eats: Rustic Blueberry Pie

Recipe by Lucy Munene

Who doesn’t love pie? This dessert transcends both holiday and weather so you don’t have to wait until next Christmas to have some pie. This simple pie can be made using any fillings and since mango season is coming maybe you can switch out the blueberries for some juicy mangoes!

• 1 packet of Lyons Maid Shortcrust Pastry, frozen

• 1 ½ cups of blueberries

• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon lemon zest

• ¼ cup granulated sugar

1. Defrost your frozen pastry at room temperature or cover in a cloth and warm in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.

2. In a medium bowl, mix blueberries, sugar, flour and lemon zest. Make sure each blueberry is coated in the mixture.

3. Place your defrosted pastry onto a baking sheet then pour the mixture onto the pastry.

4. Spread the mixture all over then fold the corners of the pastry over the blueberries leaving the centre exposed.

5. Bake at 180°C for 30-50 minutes until the pastry is golden brown. Serve with ice cream and enjoy!
