Because I had bought some Phyllo sheets last week to make a Portuguese pastry I had seen on TV I had a few sheets of the dough left over! (Next week I will again make that new recipe as we both fell in Love with the Pastel De Nara and will video making it) Randy was wanting a blueberry pie so I decided to do a little something different. Melted a half stick of butter and after separating several of the phyllo sheets, I proceeded to use a pastry brush and coat the sheets in melted butter!
Sprayed a pan with Pam and placed about 4 of the buttered phyllo sheets in the pan! Placed almost the whole can of blueberry pie filling over the sheets of dough. Sprinkled about 1/4 cup of granulated sugar over pie filling and proceeded to cover the filling with another 2 sheets of dough! Brushed the top of the two sheets with more butter and placed the remaining 2 sheets of dough, brushed more butter on top and sprinkled with a little granulated sugar. Folded the edges over to form a pocket! Baked this in preheated 375 oven for 25 min. Allowed it to cool for about 15 min and sprinkled some powdered sugar over the top. The blueberry pastry came out so crispy and buttery, it melted in our mouths! Was a new way to have blueberry “pie” that we will do this again with different fillings!
