Blueberry Pie Filling

Do you know how easy it is to make your own Blueberry Pie Filling? It is; super easy, too. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have your own made from scratch, and it only takes minutes.

Why buy canned when it’s so easy to make it from scratch? Well, ok, there is the simplicity of just opening a can, but making it is super easy.

What? No fresh blueberries? No problem, you can use frozen.

The best part of making it from scratch is that you can decide how much to make, and you have another option, too. You can substitute the regular sugar for monk fruit if you’re watching your sugar intake.

The monk fruit sweetener tastes just as good as regular sugar, but without the issues some people have with sugar. This option makes it Keto friendly.

Making Blueberry Pie Filling

In a saucepan, whisk together the cornstarch and sugar (or monk fruit sweetener) until loose and powdery. In other words, there should be no lumps from the cornstarch.

Next, add in the other ingredients; blueberries, water, and lemon juice. Turn the stove on medium heat and cook for a few minutes.

What happens is that the blueberries burst, or at least a few do, and the sauce turns from white to a lovely purplish-blue.

Also, the sauce thickens up a little, which means it’s done. It only takes about six minutes. Yep, it’s that easy.

Let the pie filling cool, then use it where you will.

Once cool, use it in this No Bake Lemon Blueberry Dessert. It’s a fan favorite for delicious reasons.

Also, this Blueberry Pie Filling can be used in my Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Bites and my Blueberry Key Lime Cheesecake.

I highly recommend serving some over the top of my Lemon Zest Keto Cake, especially if you substitute the regular sugar for the monk fruit sweetener.

This Blueberry Pie Filling is also amazing over pancakes, ice cream, waffles, plain cheesecakes. It’s delicious over yogurt, too.
