Instructions
- Line a 25cm tin with approximately two thirds of the short crust pastry. Reserve the trimmings. Chill until ready to use.
- Heat the blueberries, 40g of the caster sugar and the lemon juice in a saucepan until the juices begin to run from the fruit.
- Mix the corn flour with water, then stir a little of the hot juices from the pan into the corn flour mixture. Stir this mixture back into the pan and continue stirring until thickened. Set aside to cool.
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, demerara sugar, remaining caster sugar, glucose syrup, cream, butter, oats, fruitcake and vanilla extract. Mix well and stir in the blueberry mixture.
- Pour into the prepared pastry case.
- Roll out the remaining pastry and cut into long strips about 2cm wide.
- Create a lattice on top of the blueberry filling, by laying out the strips of pastry at 2 cm intervals across the pie, turning the pie 90 degrees and adding a second row of pastry strips to form a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake in the pre-heated oven for 45 minutes or until browned and set.
- Pour the brandy onto the hot pie and set fire to it carefully with a match. Allow the alcohol to burn off.
- Serve.
