Hello once again! Second to last week for the baking blog!
You all know the drill, mental health now, dessert later!
Well! I’ve been doing well recently. My stress levels have gone up a little bit, but overall I am doing better mentally. Though, with the stress does come increased frequency of headaches and some mood swings, however, the headaches can be fixed with coffee, advil and rest, while the mood swings? Well they’re more complicated, but looking forward to baking on the weekend does help.
Now! This week I decided to bake a blueberry pie! It turned out very tasty, though as with every blueberry pie I’ve ever made, it fell apart! so sad. Anyway, let’s get into the baking!
I did try once again to make my own pie crust. I used the same recipe as when I made my drunken apple pie, however this time it didn’t turn out so well and the dough couldnt be used. I’m not sure what I did wrong, but ehh, luckily we had a box of the frozen tore bought pie crust in the freezer! After this epic failiure of mine, I took one cup of flower and a quarter cup of flour and mixed them together in a bowl.
After the sugar and flour was mixed together I then added six cups of fresh blueberries and toss until teh blueberries are adequitely covered.
After this I took some of the blueberries and filled one side of the pie dish, then but the other half on top and separated the tin from one half. I then crimped the edges of the crust and placed the pie in the oven at 375°F for 60 minutes. After the timer I took the pie out of the oven and placed it on a rack to cool for a couple hours. Then, after it cooled I cut myself a slice!
As you can see from the photo, it did fall apart a bit, but, it was quite tasty, so I’m okay with it not being perfect.
Anuway, thank you for reading anothe rinstallment in my baking blog! I hope you enjoyed and at least learned something not to do from what I did, though to be honest I myself am not really sure what I did wrong!
Thank you and see you next week!
