Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 4 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 0.25 cups lime juice, freshly squeezed
• 1 tablespoon lime zest
• 0.5 cups water
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, and melted butter until evenly combined. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan.

Step 3

Bake the crust for 8 minutes, then remove it from the oven and let it cool completely.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, 0.75 cups of granulated sugar, cornstarch, lime juice, lime zest, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble, about 8–10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow the blueberry filling to cool slightly.

Step 5

Pour the blueberry filling into the cooled pie crust, spreading it out evenly. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set.

Step 6

Before serving, prepare the whipped cream topping. In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.

Step 7

Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the top of the chilled blueberry lime pie. Optionally, garnish with extra lime zest or fresh blueberries.

Step 8

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
