McDonald’s Blueberry & Creme Pie Recipe

Introduction

This homemade version of McDonald’s Blueberry & Creme Pie is a delightful treat that combines sweet blueberry filling with a creamy, smooth center wrapped in a flaky crust. Perfect for a snack or dessert, it’s surprisingly easy to make and sure to please the whole family.

Ingredients

• 1 package of pie crust (store-bought works fine)
• 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp cornstarch
• 4 oz cream cheese
• 1 tbsp honey
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• 1 egg (for brushing)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Step 2: In a small pot, combine the blueberries, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
3. Step 3: In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth to create the crème filling.
4. Step 4: Roll out the pie crust and cut it into rectangular pieces. On one side of each rectangle, spoon a portion of the blueberry filling; on the other side, add some of the crème filling.
5. Step 5: Fold the dough over to enclose the fillings and seal the edges firmly with a fork. Brush the tops with the beaten egg to ensure a golden finish.
6. Step 6: Place the pies on a baking sheet and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crisp.

Tips & Variations

• Use frozen blueberries if fresh are not available—just make sure to thaw and drain excess liquid before cooking.
• Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to the blueberry filling for a warm, spiced flavor.
• For an extra crisp crust, chill the pies in the fridge for 15 minutes before baking.

Storage

Store leftover pies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes to restore crispness. Avoid microwaving, as it can soften the crust.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh?

Yes, frozen blueberries work well. Just thaw them first and drain any excess liquid before cooking to avoid a soggy filling.

Can I make the pie crust from scratch?

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Pie Crust

• 1 package of pie crust (store-bought works fine)

Blueberry Filling

• 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp cornstarch

Creme Filling

• 4 oz cream cheese
• 1 tbsp honey
• ½ tsp vanilla extract

For Assembly

• 1 egg (for brushing)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to get it ready for baking the pies.
2. Prepare blueberry filling: In a small pot, combine blueberries, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and allow it to cool completely to avoid melting the crust during assembly.
3. Make creme filling: In a bowl, blend the cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. This will provide the sweet and tangy contrast to the blueberry filling.
4. Roll and cut pie crust: Roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Cut it into rectangular pieces suitable for hand pies.
5. Assemble the pies: Spoon the blueberry filling onto one side of each rectangle and the creme filling onto the other side. Carefully fold over the dough to encase the fillings, forming a sealed rectangle. Press the edges with a fork to ensure they are well sealed and to create a decorative edge.
6. Apply egg wash: Beat the egg and brush it over the tops of the pies to get a shiny, golden finish once baked.
7. Bake: Place the pies on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes or until the crusts are golden brown and fully cooked.

Notes

• You can use fresh or frozen blueberries; if using frozen, thaw and drain excess liquid before cooking to avoid watery filling.
• Ensure the blueberry filling is thoroughly cooled before assembling to prevent soggy crusts.
• Use a fork to seal the edges properly to avoid leakage of filling during baking.
• Let pies cool slightly before serving to allow filling to set and avoid burns.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
