Dessert is always delicious, but sometimes you need just a bite. I am a lover of blueberry pie, so instead of one large pie, I made these little pie bites! The best part of this recipe is how simple it is. It has limited ingredients. I am all about ease, so let’s make something delicious that is simple and fun for the Spring.


For the filling, there are only a few ingredients! You will need blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and a little corn starch! It really is that simple. This recipe is great for a girl’s picnic out, fun gathering, or a lazy night in!

In a small pot on medium heat, add 12 oz of fresh blueberries. With the blueberries, add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. Give this a little stir. Add the juice of 1/2 lemon. In a small bowl, add 2 tbsp of cornstarch and 2 tbsp of water. Give this a stir until all of the cornstarch is dissolved. Pour the cornstarch into the blueberry mixture. This will help thicken up the blueberry filling!

Once the mixture is fully combined, set this aside and let it cool. In the meantime, let’s begin the pie crust. I used the pre-made pie crust. Let it thaw for 15-20 minutes until it is easy to unroll.



Take your muffin tins and lightly grease them. Powder the muffin tins with some flour. This will help prevent them from sticking. I used a measuring cup to get the perfect circular shape. Once you cut out your circles, place them into the muffin tin. Take your cooled pie filling and place it into the mini pies. With the left over dough, you can make mini lattices! This is optional, but cute.



Lastly, brush a little butter on top and oven bake at 375 F for 15-20 minutes. Let these cool completely and then you can decorate with blueberries, lemon, or powdered sugar!
