Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Mix the filling: In a large bowl, combine the blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and black pepper. Stir and slightly mash a few berries to draw out the juices.
6 cups blueberries, ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup cornstarch, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Prepare the streusel: In a medium bowl, combine the chopped pecans, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to combine, and add the pieces of butter. Using a pastry cutter or your hands, work the butter into the streusel to create a coarse crumb.
1 cup chopped pecans, ¾ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
Assemble: Pour the filling into the prepared pie shell and top with the prepared streusel. Spread the streusel into an even layer and place in the preheated oven on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
