What I like about this recipe

These Lemon Blueberry pies are reminiscent of a blueberry cheesecake - but quicker and easier to make. Fresh blueberries are folded into a tangy lemon cream cheese filling, then spooned into mini pie pans lined with flaky puff pastry crusts and baked.

This recipe makes the perfect dessert to serve guests after dinner, with a quick 20-minute bake time. You can prepare the Lemon Blueberry pies in advance and store them in the fridge, then simply pop them in the oven while the coffee brews. In no time, your guests will be enjoying freshly baked, individual pie servings!

Equipment:

These individual blueberry lemon pies are made in mini-cast iron skillets but any 4" pie or tart pan will work nicely.

The blueberry lemon pie filling may be mixed using a hand-mixer or stand-mixer. You may also mix it by hand using a rubber spatula but it will take a bit of time (approximately 5 minutes).

Ingredients

  • Puff pastry: you may make your own (see my recipe here) or purchase pre-made dough. Roll out the puff pastry and cut four 6" circles. Place the dough in the individual pie pans so it is extends past the edges of the pan.
  • Pie filling:
    • Cream cheese: full fat and room temperature will work best for the recipe
    • Egg: bring to room temperature before mixing the pie filling
    • Lemon juice and zest: one medium-sized lemon is sufficient. If preferred, use 1 teaspoon lemon extract in place of the zest and juice.
    • Granulated sugar
    • Blueberries! Rinse the blueberries and allow to dry on a paper towel before using

FAQs

Can I use frozen blueberries for the mini pies?

Yes. Defrost the frozen blueberries and drain excess juices. Place drained blueberries on a plate lined with a paper towel and allow to dry for at least 20 minutes.

Can I use this recipe to make a full-sized lemon blueberry pie?

Yes! Use a 9" pie or tart pan. Place a circle of puff pastry in the pan (the dough should overhang the pan by at least 1"). Add the filling, fold the puff pastry over the filling and bake for 30 - 35 minutes.

I hope you enjoy this individual blueberry lemon pie recipe as much as my friends and family do!
