Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Gently press the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges as desired. Prick the bottom of the crust a few times with a fork to prevent bubbling during baking.
Scatter the fresh blueberries evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, flour, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add in the milk and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to ensure no lumps remain. This is your custard filling.
Pour the custard filling gently over the blueberries in the pie crust. Use a spoon or spatula to spread the mixture evenly if necessary.
Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any potential spills, then transfer the pie to the preheated oven.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is lightly golden. You can test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the custard—if it comes out clean, the pie is ready.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely to room temperature. The custard will continue to set as it cools.
Optional: Dust the top of the pie lightly with ground cinnamon for added flavor and visual appeal.
Slice and serve the pie at room temperature or chilled. Refrigerate any leftovers for up to 3 days.
