Blueberry Pie Filling is a great recipe for all those spring & summer berries. Perfect homemade pie filling recipe that is delicious in a graham cracker crust, on top of cheesecake or an ice cream sundae.
There are a few things that are just so Americana to me- baseball (even though I am more of a football fan), the red white & blue Old Glory & pie. Blueberry Pie to be exact.
I know that we are hovering close to Memorial Day – so that means I’m all about the Americana recipes & ideas to share. To me – all of summer is about Americana & just making those special memories for our kids that we remember having ourselves.
My kids sure love blueberry pie but I’m not always in the mood to prepare one from scratch. But I am a firm believer in not buying the canned stuff whenever possible. Especially when it’s sooooo easy to make & just keep in the fridge for whenever the mood strikes. So that’s what I did.
I made some Blueberry Pie Filling & they can add a little dollop to whatever they want. It’s so delish on ice cream, oatmeal – you name it.

You know it only took me about 10 minutes to make. Then just add to the jars & store for that perfect moment. I can tell you that I’m super happy that it’s in there waiting for me when that mood strikes – because that’s usually not the time when I want to take the 10 minutes to make it right then & there. Plan ahead & all is right with the world.

I love this pie filling and it has been my go-to recipe for the last 5 years! I always give it to people as a gift with my special streusel recipe with it to make blueberry crumble. What I hear the most is that it is most loved over vanilla ice cream, and I can 100% agree. It is not only an amazing filling for a pie or a crumble it is the BEST ice cream topping I have ever had as well.
Happy canning!

Gina Kleinworth says
It could be an issue with the browser you are using – it should open the recipe card in another window or tab and you should be able to click print from there.

I together with my buddies happened to be viewing the nice procedures from your web blog and then then got an awful feeling I had not thanked the website owner for them. All the young boys were certainly passionate to see all of them and now have surely been having fun with them. Many thanks for turning out to be quite accommodating and also for having variety of quality topics most people are really wanting to learn about. My personal honest apologies for not expressing gratitude to you sooner.
