Prepare pie crusts: Grease a 9-inch pie pan and make vegan pie crust. Reserve half of pie crust dough in the fridge, roll out the other half until it is about 12” in diameter, wrap around rolling pin, and drape over pie pan. Place in fridge to re-cool. (Alternatively, use a store-bought vegan pie crust.)
Make filling: Add blueberries, sugar, arrowroot powder, cinnamon, lemon juice, and salt to a large mixing bowl and mix until combined.
Assemble pie: Pour filling into prepared pie crust. Roll out pie crust top and make a lattice design on top of pie (follow step-by-step photos above). Form edges and cut off any excess dough hanging over.
Make “egg” wash: Mix almond milk and maple syrup in a small bowl. Then, brush it over the pie crust.
Bake on the center rack for 45-55 minutes (until top is golden brown). (If needed, cover the edges of the pie crust for a portion of the time using a pie shield or aluminum foil.)
Let cool and serve with vegan whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on top!
