Fresh Blueberry Cheesecake Pie
What could be better than fresh blueberries? Blueberries atop cheesecake made with Pillsbury pie crust, of course!
Ingredients
- 1Pillsbury™ refrigerated pie crust, softened as directed on box
- 1package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1cup sour cream
- 2/3cup sugar
- 2eggs
- 1teaspoon vanilla
Blueberry Topping
- 1/2cup sugar
- 1tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4cup water
- 2tablespoons lemon juice
- 2cups fresh blueberries
Steps
1 Heat oven to 425°F. Slowly and gently unroll crust. Place crust in ungreased 9-inch pie plate; press firmly against side and bottom. Fold excess crust under and press together to form thick crust edge; flute. Line crust with 10-inch parchment paper or foil circle. Fill bottom of crust to about 1/2 inch deep with metal or ceramic pie beans (use rice or dry beans if you don’t have pie beans). Bake 10 minutes.
2 Reduce heat to 375°F. Remove parchment paper and beans from crust. Return crust to oven; bake an additional 4 to 6 minutes or until bottom looks dry and is just starting to turn light brown.
3 Meanwhile in a large bowl, beat together cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla with electric mixer on medium-high speed just until blended; pour into crust.
4 Cover edge of crust with strips of foil to prevent excessive browning. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until filling is set but center still jiggles slightly when moved. Cool 1 hour at room temperature.
5 Meanwhile in 1 1/2 quart saucepan, mix sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon. Stir in water and lemon juice until smooth. Stir in 1 cup blueberries. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil 2 minutes or until thickened and most of the berries have popped. Stir in remaining 1 cup blueberries.
6 Spread blueberry mixture over cooled cheesecake. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving. Store in refrigerator.
