Description

This no-bake blueberry pie is the ultimate summer dessert shortcut. Bursting with sweet-tart berries and spiced with a hint of cinnamon, the filling sets perfectly in the microwave for a glossy, jam-like texture that clings to every bite. The addition of sherry adds a sophisticated depth, while the optional sour cream topping provides a cool, rich contrast. Its an elegant yet effortless way to showcase fresh or frozen blueberries without turning on the oven. Perfect for potlucks, last-minute gatherings, or a light evening treat, this pie chills quickly and delivers maximum flavor with minimal fuss.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the baked pie crust on a serving plate or pie dish.
  2. Gently spread the blueberries evenly into the bottom of the pie crust.
  3. In a 4-cup microwave-safe glass measure, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
  4. Stir in the water and mix until smooth with no lumps.
  5. Microwave the mixture uncovered on high power, stirring every minute, until it thickens and becomes clear, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  6. Remove from microwave and immediately stir in the sherry and lemon juice.
  7. Pour the hot blueberry mixture evenly over the berries in the pie shell.
  8. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set completely.
  9. For the topping, mix sour cream, sugar, and vanilla until smooth, then serve spooned over slices of pie.

Note

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The filling will continue to firm up as it chills.

For a vegan option, substitute the sour cream topping with coconut cream or a dairy-free yogurt alternative. You can also replace the sherry with apple juice or extra lemon juice if you prefer an alcohol-free version.

If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before placing them in the crust; they will release juices as the hot filling is poured over them. Ensure the cornstarch mixture is fully dissolved before microwaving to avoid lumps.
