This Blueberry Lavender Pie is the quintessential summertime treat and so easy to create. It’s blueberry-filled, extra juicy, perfectly flavored with summery lavender, and oh so delicious! The pie crust base is a simple salted butter pie dough made special with a small touch of rye flour. The filling has lavender and lemon with plenty of fresh blueberries for the maximum berry experience. Just before baking, the pie is sprinkled with lavender sugar, creating the ultimate extra sweet crust. Delicious and bound to become a new summer favorite…classic with just the right twist and a beautiful boost of blue.

We have blueberry pie! I feel like this represents what summer is truly about, berry-filled pies with ice cream on the side. It’s what I picture when I dream of summer throughout the winter and spring months.

Funny enough, I have very few summer berry pies in the Half Baked Harvest archives. So when the Blueberry Council reached out, not only about creating a brand new blueberry pie recipe for summer, but also about being an official judge for their summer pie contest, I was so excited.

Looking at the number of fresh blueberry recipes I have on HBH, I think it’s safe to say that I really love blueberries. So this was a perfect fit for me!

Let’s talk about the pie contest

Before I dive into my blueberry lavender pie, I want to share that the pie contest is live, and the entry period goes until July 14.

If you have an AMAZING blueberry pie recipe, you can enter your recipe here for a chance to win the $10,000 grand prize for America’s best blueberry pie. I will be testing out the top pies and choosing the winner at the end of July.

I cannot wait. Read about the details here.

Onto recipe details

The amazing thing about blueberry pie is that it really is a simple pie to make. All you need are some really great summer berries and not much else. I wanted to make mine extra special and very Tieghan-like, so my twist includes the addition of lavender. I love the combination of blueberries and lavender. The lavender really highlights the blueberries and provides a nice subtle floral flavor…it’s delicious.

For the crust, you can use two store-bought pie rounds or make your own using my recipe. Either will be great, so do what works best for you.

The pie filling

As I mentioned this pie is simple. Fresh blueberries, sugar, lemon, lavender, and a touch of vanilla. Cornstarch is added to create the perfect juice berry sauce.

And that’s it. When I was making this, I was like…wow, this really is simple.

You’ll pour the filling into the pie crust, then add that second crust on top. The next step is key, sprinkle some lavender sugar over top of the crust just before baking. This will create a perfectly sweet…and also pretty…crust.

A note on the crust

For the pie crust design, I went a little above and beyond with a lattice design and sweet butterfly cutouts, but you can do whatever you’d like. Have fun with the design or keep it simple.

It’s up to you!

This pie is great as an afternoon snack or after-dinner dessert…with a scoop of vanilla ice cream…of course. So summery and so delicious!

A great way to kick off summer!

  1. Tieghan, I have a quick question. In the reel above, is that blue glass bottle vanilla? If so, is it imitation? I’m trying to find a good imitation vanilla extract that tastes like the real thing. 🙂 Abigail

    1. Hey Abigail,
      Yes, that is vanilla, but it’s not imitation:) Please let me know if you have any other questions! xT

    I had a really difficult time finding dried lavender so I bought lavender honey tea at a local shop and used that. I also added a little lavender syrup to the blueberry mix, trying to be mindful of how much liquid I put in. I didn’t get any lavender flavor so I’m going to make again when my gardener friend harvests her lavender. It was still very good, even if I was lazy and used store bought pie crusts!

    1. Hi Meredith,
      Happy Wednesday!? Thanks so much for making this recipe, I am so glad it was a tasty one! I would try ordering the lavender online:) xxT

  3. Can I make this 24 hours ahead of time and keep in the fridge until baking it? I am hoping to make it on a Saturday and serve it on a Sunday. Thank you

    1. Hi Nora,
      Sure, that would be totally fine for you to do! Please let me know how the recipe turns out, I hope you love it! xTieghan

    I used a diff dbl pie crust I had on hand with the recipe for this uniquely scented filling. WOW! The lavender level is spot on and the blues baked/jelled to perfection. This was my 1st try at a deep dish blueberry pie and I will def repeat for fruit-pie-loving fam. As you often say, SO GOOD! So easy to assemble. Thxs, T.

    1. Hey Hillary!
      Amazing!! I am thrilled that this dish was a hit, thanks a lot for trying it out! xTieghan

  5. Could I use fresh lavender for this recipe? Accidentally bought some this spring when I was buying fresh herbs and have had no clue what to use it in.

    1. Hi Kristin,
      Sure, fresh lavender will also work well for you here! Let me know how the recipe turns out, I hope you love it! xTieghan

  6. If I use a glass pie pan will it break due to the sudden temperature change going from fridge to hot oven? Thanks!

    1. Hey Betty,
      Sorry, I really have no idea! Better to stick with a metal or ceramic pie plate if possible:) Let me know if you give the recipe a try, I hope you love it! xx

    1. Hey Heather,
      Yes, that will work well for you! I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you give it a try! xx

    This pie is DELICIOUS!!! I made it earlier this week and it hardly lasted the night. I made some adjustments as needed to both the pie and pie crust recipes that still made this the best pie ever.

    Pie – We could not find lavender, though no worries it was still fantastic. I probably used only 3 cups of berries due to lack of space in my pie dish. Instead of cornstarch, I used corn muffin mix which worked perfectly.

    Pie Crust – I did 1.5 sticks of butter, since the ingredients list on here didn’t match the measurements on my butter sticks. All worked out in the end. The water wasn’t on the ingredients like, but it’s easy enough to add from the directions below. I put my dough ball in the fridge for about 45 mins, which helps stiffen it.

    1. Hey Becky,
      Happy Friday!! I love to hear that this recipe was enjoyed, thanks a bunch for giving it a go:) Thanks for sharing what worked well for you. xTieghan

    1. Hey there,
      I used a regular pie dish for this recipe. I hope you enjoy the pie, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan

        I’m so excited about trying this! I just finished baking it and it turned out smelling amazing – I used a pre made and store bought crust so I hope it tastes good still! I’ve never made a totally homemade filling before. It was a very simple recipe and I appreciated the link to the dried lavender!

        1. Hey Stacey,
          Happy Sunday!! Thanks so much for making this recipe, I am so glad to hear that it was enjoyed! xx
