Blueberry Pie Cookies

If you love blueberry pie, then these Blueberry Pie Cookies are going to be your new favorite treat! They have a flaky, buttery crust filled with sweet and juicy blueberries, all in a perfectly portioned, hand-held size. These cookies are easy to make, bursting with flavor, and a fun twist on the classic blueberry pie.

Ingredients

For the Blueberry Filling:

  • 1 pint (about 1 ½ cups) fresh blueberries
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (for thickening)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Crust:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup ice water
  • 1 egg (for egg wash, optional)
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (for sprinkling, optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Blueberry Filling

  1. In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, water, and sugar over medium heat.
  2. Stir occasionally until the blueberries start to soften and burst.
  3. Mix cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water to create a slurry, then stir it into the blueberry mixture.
  4. Continue cooking until the mixture thickens (about 5 minutes).
  5. Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla extract. Set aside to cool.

Step 2: Prepare the Pie Dough

  1. In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Add cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or fork to blend until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Slowly add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together.
  3. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.

Step 3: Assemble the Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the chilled pie dough on a floured surface to ¼-inch thickness.
  3. Use a round cookie cutter (or a glass) to cut out circles for the cookies.
  4. Place half of the circles on the baking sheet and spoon a small amount of blueberry filling in the center.
  5. Place the remaining pie crust circles on top and gently press the edges to seal.
  6. Crimp edges with a fork and brush with egg wash for a golden finish.
  7. Sprinkle with coarse sugar (optional) for extra crunch.

Step 4: Bake & Enjoy!

  1. Bake in preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown.
  2. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
  3. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
