1 hrsPlump fresh blueberries fold into a creamy sour cream custard that bakes into a tender, tangy filling.
A quick streusel topping of flour, butter, and chopped pecans gets sprinkled on during the final minutes of baking, creating a crunchy, sweet contrast.
The combination of creamy, fruity, and nutty textures makes every slice irresistible.
Serve chilled for the best texture.
Pro Tips
- Beat custard thoroughly: Five minutes of beating creates the smoothest texture
- Fold berries gently: Stir just until combined to avoid crushing
- Add streusel late: Sprinkle it on for only the last 10 minutes to prevent burning
- Chill completely: The filling sets properly when refrigerated
- Use fresh berries: Peak-season blueberries make the biggest difference
Variations
- Mix in a handful of raspberries with the blueberries
- Add lemon zest to the custard for extra brightness
- Use walnuts instead of pecans in the topping
