Blueberry Yogurt Pie

Ms*Bindy's Note:

Posted for Zaar World Tour. This pie is a bit tangy...especially if your blueberries are not too sweet! You may want to consider adding a little more sugar to the filling if you like a sweeter pie.

Made this last night and served it this afternoon. It was brilliant!!! So light and just the right amount of sweetness to hit the spot! Definitely should be served completely chilled.

Great tasting! We like our pies without a lot of sugar and this is it. I used fat free yogurt in vanilla flavour and omitted adding the vanilla. I had a little trouble with the crust, had to keep adding flour until it stopped sticking to my fingers. I used frozen blueberries and didn't thaw them out first. Cooked for the full hour. Thanks Ms Bindy for posting this.

We really enjoyed this recipe. It was quite tasty! It ended up being just a tad too tangy for us, but I think it would have been better if I had used fresh berries; I will try that next time. Thanks for the wonderful light dessert!
