Don’t let the ingredient list fool you—this vibrant blueberry fruit pie is surprisingly quick to prepare and bursting with fresh, summery flavor. The filling is thickened with kudzu root starch, a traditional ingredient derived from an ancient healing plant known for its soothing effects on the digestive system. It creates a luxuriously creamy texture without dairy or refined thickeners. A naturally sweet raw nut crust pairs perfectly with juicy seasonal fruit, making this pie a refreshing and nutrient-dense dessert for summer picnics, gatherings, or quiet moments on the porch. Best enjoyed chilled and savored slowly.
