  1. Roll out one chilled pie dough disk on a lightly floured surface until it reaches a 12-inch circle. Fit the dough into a 9-inch pie dish and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Combine granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, cinnamon, ground allspice, and fine sea salt in a bowl. Toss in the blueberries gently.
  3. Roll out the second dough disk, cut into strips and weave them over the filling to create a lattice pattern. Seal edges by crimping.
  4. Dot filling with butter. Whisk egg yolk and heavy cream, brush over the lattice, and sprinkle coarse sugar on top.
  5. Preheat oven to 400°F. Bake for 20 minutes, then reduce to 350°F and bake for another 35-45 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Let the pie cool on a wire rack for 2-3 hours to set the filling.
