I made this pie last year and it was DELICIOUS! Hands down, the best blueberry pie I've eaten. I am thinking that I did something a little differently than the recipe said, like maybe didn't do the lemon peel, but I can't find my notes. Either way, it was awesome.

the best and easiest to make ! Perfect for a warm day and you don't want to heat up your house with the oven on for an hour ! Great tasting too! It was a hit at our Labor Day Party.

Many years ago on the pie crust recipe box, there was a blueberry pie recipe not using cinnamon. I have lost it. I do not like nor does my family like blueberry pie with cinnamon. Does anyone have that recipe?
