Have you been looking for a simple dessert that can be whipped up with next to no effort at all? One that everyone will think you slaved over, even if you only have a few minutes to throw it together? If so, we’ve got the perfect dessert for you. Individual blueberry pies that you can make in just a few minutes.
This dish came about when my wife randomly stated that she would like some blueberries. She rarely asks for anything specific and even less often asks for something sweet, so I wandered into the kitchen and scoped the pantry.
Yep, we had canned blueberries. No problem.
Now I’m not saying that these little guys are quite as wonderful as a fresh blueberry pie (Recipe coming soon!), but in a pinch, they’re worth the time and (lack of) effort. I had no complaints from anyone at the table that night and all four of these little morsels was devoured in haste.
Cooked by the seat of my pants, Family approved. I hope that your family likes them as much as mine did.
Do you have any go-to shortcut desserts? If so, we’d love to hear about hem, so let us know!

What I would have done differently had I thought of it at the time:
Well, fresh blueberries would top the list, but I’m thinking that a little orange juice would be nice here as well. I’ll have to try that next time ’round.

Love this recipe, and love that you used refrigerated pie crusts. I’ve been feeling a little intimidated by the fact that so many food bloggers say pie crust is no big deal. . .let me tell you, I love myself a refrigerated pie crust. Thanks! Love the blog
I don’t think of pie crusts as a big deal, but I’m also never without a frozen or refrigerated shell hanging around for stuff like this. There’s no harm in just “whipping something out” with a bit of help from time to time. I’m glad you enjoyed the recipe!
This is such an awesome idea. My go to desserts are always classic chocolate chip cookies because of how simple they are and how easy it is to add different extras. I need to start trying dishes like this though.
There are quite a few simple desserts that you can make quickly and easily, but I’ve never, EVER, had anyone say no to a chocolate chip cookie!
Jerry, I think the changes you’ve made here are FABULOUS! Love the new clean logo/branding. Really nice. And I wouldn’t turn down one of those quickie pies, either, because I’ll take pie over cake any day. :)
Thanks Kelly!
I changed it up because it’s not just about me anymore. My wife’s recipes are showing up often, and the new design definitely helps to show off the images and the recipes more. After all, that’s what we’re all about
Yum, I love pie! My middle daughter is having a blueberry obsession right now too. And I like the smaller serving size because it mentally stops me from eating too much when I am trying to be a good girl! :)
