I had a man propose to me after tasting this pie at a party. Yes, it's that good. The secret is my grandmother's super-flaky pie crust recipe. Best with fresh blueberries or dewberries.

Ingredients

• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 pinch salt
• ⅓ cup water
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• ⅔ cup vegetable oil
• 2 cups self-rising flour
• 2 tablespoons butter, cut into small cubes
• 2 cups blueberries, or more to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Mix 2 cups self-rising flour, oil, and water together in a bowl until pie crust dough is well-mixed; divide into 2 balls. Roll each ball between 2 pieces of waxed paper until flattened and about 9 inches in diameter. Turn 1 piece of dough over pie dish and peel off top piece of waxed paper. Trim crust if needed. Set remaining dough aside.

Step 3

Combine blueberries, sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, lemon juice, and salt together in a bowl until evenly mixed; pour into the pie crust. Cover blueberry filling with remaining dough, crimping the edges together. Arrange butter cubes on top crust.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until filling is thick and crust is golden brown, about 50 minutes.
