while you make the pie filling

step 5: mix blueberries, sugar, salt, cinnamon, 

corn starch, and lemon juice

(refer back to ingredients for specific measurements)

egg wash

pour the filling inside

 

step 8: lay and evenly space out 

5 strips over the filled pie parallel to each other

while brushing the egg wash onto the strips

step 9: carefully fold back the second and fourth strips,

lay a strip of dough perpendicular to the other strips,

and fold the strips back over

step 10: then fold back the first, third, and fifth strips over the new strip

and then lay another strip of dough across the pie

(repeat steps 9 and 10 until the pie is covered with a lattice crust)

step 11: cut the tbsp of butter into pieces and

place them in between the lattice strips, and 

pinch the crust
