Ingredients (Serves 8)
- 1 (14.1 oz) package of double-crust pie pastry (store-bought or homemade)
- 3 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca (or cornstarch as substitute)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Step-by-Step Directions
Step 1: Prep the Crust
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place one pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently into the edges.
Step 2: Make the Fruit Filling
In a large bowl, toss sliced peaches and blueberries with lemon juice. In a separate small bowl, mix sugar, tapioca, and salt. Add this dry mix to the fruit and stir gently to coat. Let the fruit rest for 10–15 minutes to release its natural juices.
Step 3: Assemble the Pie
Spoon the fruit filling into the prepared pie crust. Dot the filling with small pieces of butter. Place the second pie crust over the top, sealing and crimping the edges. Cut small slits in the top crust for steam to escape.
Step 4: Bake the Pie
Bake in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling. If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil.
Step 5: Cool and Serve
Allow the pie to cool for at least 1 hour before serving so the filling can set. Slice and enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream or chilled with whipped cream.
Tips for the Best Peach and Blueberry Pie
- Use ripe fruit: Sweet, juicy peaches and firm blueberries give the best flavor.
- Thickening agent: Tapioca helps create a glossy filling, but cornstarch works too.
- Homemade crust upgrade: While store-bought crust is convenient, a homemade buttery crust makes the pie extra special.
- Make it ahead: Bake the pie a day before serving—it tastes even better the next day!

Store at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Cover loosely with foil or plastic wrap.
3. Can I freeze peach and blueberry pie?
