Instructions
For the pie
Preheat oven to 375°F.
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 tbsp fresh lemon juice, ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Pour into the prepared pie shell and top with the prepared streusel (instructions below). Spread streusel into an even layer and place in the preheated oven on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
1 9-inch pie crust
Bake at 375°F for 45 minutes, then lower the temperature to 350°F until the pie is bubbling throughout, an additional 30-45 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely to room temperature before slicing and serving.
For the streusel
In a medium bowl, combine the chopped pecans, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to combine and add the pieces of butter.
1 cup chopped pecans, ¾ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup light brown sugar, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, 8 tbsp (1 stick) unsalted butter
Using a pastry cutter or hand, work the butter into the streusel to create a coarse crumb.
