recipe is from Cooking Light magazine
Filling
• 6 cups blueberries (if using frozen thaw and warm slightly in the microwave before proceeding)
• 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice or MinuteMaid pure lemon juice (in the freezer dept of the grocery
store)
• 1 ½ cups sugar
• 1/3 cup (rounded) minute tapioca (in the red box)
• 1 ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 pinch ground cloves
Preheat the oven to 350 deg. F.
1. In large bowl, combine the Filling ingredients and let stand for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Topping
• 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour

• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• 5 tablespoons chilled butter, cut into small pieces
