Blueberry & Vanilla Custard Pie

One of my favorite ways to create new recipes is to combine the best parts of tried-n-true recipes. I combined parts of the Rustic Fruit Tart and the Blueberry Custard Pie to create this recipe. What you need:

• 1 ready made pie crust, unbaked
• 4 c. fresh blueberries, divided
• 3 Tbsp. sugar
• 2 Tbsp. corn starch
• 1 (3.4 oz.) box instant vanilla pudding
• 1 c. heavy cream
• 1/2 c. whole milk
• 2 tsp. vanilla

Directions:

• In a small bowl, combine 3 cups of blueberries, sugar, and cornstarch. Pour into unbaked pie crust. Bake at 450 for 35 minutes or until crust is golden and blueberries are bubbling. Allow to cool.
• In a medium sized bowl, combine pudding, heavy cream, milk, and vanilla. Beat on high for about 45 seconds or until well blended and thick. Spread over cooled pie.
• Top with remaining blueberries.
