Blueberry Pie Cups with Meringue

Blueberry Pie Cups with Meringue frosting is an easy and delectable summer dessert recipe. These Blueberry Pie Cups have a sugar cookie base made in the muffin tin, which is baked and filled with Blueberry Pie filling. It is finally topped with sweet Meringue which is broiled and decorated with Blueberries and Mint Leaves! This is such a cute looking and indulging summer dessert recipe. Also, this is an absolutely unique recipe with blueberries.

Blueberry Pie Cups with Meringue

Hello guys! Happy Saturday to you! As promised, I am back with another interesting baking project for the weekend. Since this is the July 4th weekend and Blueberries is my latest obsession, I've been dishing out some crazy good blueberry recipes all along - be it the American flag fruit pizza or Berry Lasagna or Blueberry Crumb Cake or Lemon Blueberry Muffins or Classic Blueberry Muffins!

Today, I thought of making everyone's favorite - Blueberry Pie but in the form of cups that I have topped with some freshly homemade sweet and stiff Meringue. This is such an amazing recipe with Blueberries. I was just deciding on the perfect recipe for the weekend with blueberries and I happened to make this by chance.

But you guys, I am so in love with the recipe. It's so amazing and unique. I have never made anything like this before and trust me, I loved every bite of this recipe. 🙂 Seriously, it's really very good.

Let's talk taste

Tastewise these Blueberry Pie Cups are just roll your eyes back good. They are moist and juicy. There is a sweet and delicious blueberry pie filling which just makes it so delicious. The outer cookie cup is crusty and buttery!

How to make Blueberry Pie Cups with Meringue

As you might have guessed there are 3 major steps in this recipe.

1st step - Making the Cookie Cups

To make the cookie cups, combine butter and sugar along with flour, baking soda, cornflour, eggs, and vanilla. Mix everything until you get a soft cookie dough ready.

Grease the muffin tin generously and drop a cookie dough ball into it. Press the center with your thumb and the edges with your forefingers to make a cup.

Bake these cookie cups for 10 minutes at 350F or 200C.

After they are baked, press the center with your thumb or a round bottom spoon to make a hole in these cups.

2nd Step - Making the Blueberry Pie filling

In a pan take some Blueberries (fresh or frozen). Add sugar, cornstarch, Blueberry Jam, and lemon juice to it and cook over low flame for 1 minute until it thickens.

Cool it down and spoon it into your cookie cups.

Fill the cookie cups completely with this pie filling. They might overflow right now, but don't worry, pretty soon when you'll bake them, it'll soak it all the moisture and only the blueberries will remain on the top. 🙂

After this bake your Blueberry Pie Cups for another 3-4 minutes at 350F or 200C.

Once they get baked, get it out fo the oven, cool it down completely before you do the frosting with Meringue.

3rd Step - Meringue Frosting

I have used Meringue frosting for this recipe. You can use American Buttercream Frosting or Swiss Buttercream Frosting or Cream Cheese Frosting or Mascarpone Cheese Frosting or Heavy Whipping Cream Frosting over your Blueberry Pie Cups!

To make Meringue, beat Egg whites over low speed for 1 minute. Add the sugar 1 teaspoon at a time and beat at high speed for at least 4-5 more minutes or until you get stiff peaks.

Take the Meringue in a piping bag and do the frosting over cooled Blueberry Pie Cups.

Broil these Blueberry pie cups for 15-20 seconds.

If you are using any other kind of frosting you don't need to broil.

So, that's how you make these cute little Blueberry Pie Cups. It's such an easy recipe but is so tasty and delicious. These taste just like Blueberry Pies, but they look so different and cute as well.

How to store these Blueberry Pie Cups

You can store this in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Before having it you can heat it in the oven at 350F for 2-3 minutes.

Other possible variations to this recipe

Of course, there can be so many unique variations that you can do to make these Blueberry Pie Cups your own.

  • You can use canned Blueberry Pie filling
  • You can use any fruit or berries in place of Blueberry.
  • You can make this gluten-free with your favorite gluten-free flour.

I loved making this recipe and my family loved every part of this dessert. This is one of my favorite recipes this year with Blueberries. See those cute meringue frosting on top of my Blueberry Pie cups, yeah! that's my idea and I love love love it! You should definitely try this recipe this summer. Especially with this long weekend coming up, this will be a fun baking project to try out. So tell me how it goes 🙂
