Instructions
1
In a 9-inch pie pan, combine the flour, sugar, and salt.
2
Add the canola oil and milk. Using a fork, mix the ingredients until they are well blended, forming a dough.
3
Pat the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pie pan to create a crust. Use your fingers to form a neat edge along the rim.
4
To prevent the crust from bubbling, prick the base with a fork evenly.
5
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
6
Gently rinse the blueberries under cold water, and remove any stems or damaged berries. After rinsing, lay them on a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
7
Evenly distribute the blueberries into the prepared crust.
8
In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually stir in the milk and 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream, mixing until smooth.
9
Pour this creamy mixture over the blueberries in the crust, ensuring even coverage.
10
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, checking after 30 minutes. If the edge of the crust starts to brown too much, cover it with strips of aluminum foil.
11
Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving to let the filling set.
12
To whip the cream, start with a chilled mixing bowl. Pour in the 1/2 cup of very cold whipping cream and beat until stiff peaks form.
13
Add the vanilla and 2 tablespoons of sugar to the whipped cream, mixing gently until combined.
14
Serve each slice of the chilled pie with a generous dollop of whipped cream on top.
