Bear Naked Lemon Blueberry Pie

   

Ingredients

Crust

• 1 bag of Fruit and Nut Bear Naked Granola (https://www.kelloggs.com/en_US/products/bear-naked-fruit-nut-granola-product.html)
• 6 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Blueberry Pie Filling

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/3 cup water
• 2 cups blueberries
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Lemon Curd

• 5 large lemons
• 1 cup sugar
• 12 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 6 large egg yolks
• 5 large eggs
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Crush/grind granola until you get crumbs and then add butter and brown sugar and combine. 
2. Push crust mixture into a 10-inch pie pan and press up sides. Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes. You are looking for it to become a bit more golden and dark in color. Once it is done, take it out to cool.
3. Combine dry ingredients for blueberry pie filling in a medium sauce pan. Add water and turn on medium heat. Add lemon juice to blueberries. 
4. Stir the mixture in the saucepan until it starts boiling. Continue to stir while it boils for 2 minutes. Turn off heat. 
5. Stir in blueberries and leave to cool. 
6. Juice and zest the lemons. You will need 1 cup of juice. 
7. Add sugar, butter, juice, and zest to a sauce pan and stir occasionally over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.
8. Combine eggs and egg yolks in a bowl. Slowly mix in hot mixture (do not cook your eggs!) until combined. Return everything to the saucepan and mix over low-medium heat until thickened. You want it to be as thick as pudding. 
9. Take off the heat and continue mixing until transferring to a bowl. 
10. Place plastic wrap on top the curd (you want the plastic wrap to touch the curd so a skin doesn't form).
11. Chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours. 
12. Now it's time to put it all together! 
13. Pour blueberry pie filling into the bottom of the crust and then carefully pour the lemon curd on top. 
14. Top with some meringue if your heart desires!
15. Decorate with granola and fresh blueberries. 
16. Enjoy!
