It was just what my family has always called it. Maybe because the middle crust soaks up the juices from the berries like a sponge and swells in the process. My Mom never added any thickener to the berries either. The old fashioned down East pie. I add a bit to mine but still on the runny side otherwise the juice doesn't soak into that middle crust as well.I never remember a crust being left behind. LOL

Hi, I made this last night and it was Great but I have a question. I used a 7 x 11 baking dish and I have never made a three crusted dessert so I had no idea what done was at 350 degrees? I baked it for 40 minutes at 350 after the 15 minutes at 425 degrees. I put foil over the top after 20 minutes at the 350 degree part. Could you give me a suggestion as to what it should look like to know when it is done?

Hey Shandy,
I wish I could say so many minutes but I never do it by time. Because it all depends on amount of berries, size of pan etc. But I can tell by the color of the crust a nice golden like a normal blueberry pie and the juices are bubbling in the center dark blue and almost transparent again like a regular pie.By all means foil if the crust is getting too brown.
