- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (or orange zest)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine flour, sugar, salt, and cubed butter. Pulse on and off for about 1 minute until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Drizzle in the ice water and pulse again for another minute until the mixture holds together when squeezed.

Notes
Using ice water helps create a flaky crust.
Feel free to adjust the sweetness of the blueberries with more or less sugar depending on your taste preference.
Let the pie cool completely before slicing for cleaner cuts.
