Healthy Blueberry Pie (Vegan and Gluten Free)

Healthy Blueberry Pie.  Out of all the desserts out there, pie has always been my favorite.  In fact, my very first blog post was a pie recipe.

Please forgive the awful photos!  Since we are in the middle of berry season, I was thinking about blueberry pie.

Last weekend, we took the girls out to lunch at Spiral Diner.  My husband got the blueberry pie for dessert.  It was good!  I knew I could come home and make a healthier blueberry pie!  My homemade blueberry pie is not only delicious, it’s vegan, gluten free and grain free!

    Recipe Notes

    Please keep the pie stored in the fridge. It should last at least a week. You may even be able to freeze it, but I haven't tried to say for sure. The crust recipe I used was from Elana's Pantry .

    1. I'm restricted with what I can eat dessert/sweet-wise, so this was perfect for Christmas! Delicious, but not overly sweet/heavy, everyone loved it! In fact, I'm making another today as the first one got demolished!
    2. I did use frozen blueberries way up here in Canada, picked fresh then froze for a taste of summer while it snows like the dickens. Which is what it is doing today. I did not add water just half thawed berries and added one moreT chia hemp buckwheat mix. Turned out marvelous. Thank you for a nice taste of summer.
    3. i am going to make this and i have chia seed alredy ground..could i use that or use whole chia seeds? thankyou..can't wait to try it..laura lewis
    4. Could using 1 actual egg be a replacement for flax seed egg? Also, is it necessary to have the chia seeds in the pie?
    5. HI! I want to make this for memorial day- but Im having a problem with almonds, do you think cashews would work? thanks
      1. Hi! Can you send me a screenshot of what you are seeing? What operating system and browser are you using? Phone or a computer? I am seeing all the measurements fine on my end. Maple syrup is 1/3 cup and water is 1/3 cup. Thanks for your help!
    6. H, This was delicious but way too watery. Perhaps because I didn't have 5 cups of blueberries and had to use 1 of frozen? Next time I might try double the amount of arrowroot. Anybody done that? I know you have to be careful so as not to get glue!
      1. If you used frozen, I would suggest draining before using. If the mixture looks too watery, you can always add more chia and arrowroot.
