Blueberry pie

INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 cups fresh blueberries
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
1 tablespoon butter

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Mix sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon, and sprinkle over blueberries.
Line pie dish with one pie crust. Pour berry mixture into the crust, and dot with butter. Cut remaining pastry into 1/2 - 3/4 inch wide strips, and make lattice top. Crimp and flute edges.
Bake pie on lower shelf of oven for about 50 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.

Unlike your original blueberry pie this is much simpler. Though this recipe is that that much more different than your usual pie recipe. The method is better because the cook temperature is just right and the amount of the ingredients is the right on key. This is a good dessert and feeds atleast 4 people. It is great for many occasions because it is easy to make, doesn't call for a lot of ingredients, and is very good.
