Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine fresh blueberries, powdered sugar, cornstarch, vanilla paste, lemon zest and juice, and cinnamon. Mix well.
Roll out two pie crusts and place one in your pie dish as the base. Pour the blueberry filling evenly into the crust.
Roll out the third crust; create a lattice top or cover directly over the filling, cutting slits for steam to escape if using a full crust.
Whisk together the egg and water for an egg wash; brush over the top crust.
Sprinkle coarse sugar on top before baking.
Bake on a baking sheet for about 30 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
Allow to cool before slicing into squares.
