Tips for Baking Recipes with Blueberries
Fresh vs. Frozen: Both work great! If using frozen blueberries, don’t thaw them first — add them straight from the freezer to prevent bleeding into the batter.
Fold Gently: Stir blueberries in at the end and fold gently to avoid crushing them (especially if they’re juicy or overripe).
Add a Flavor Boost such as lemon zest, vanilla, almond extract, or cinnamon. Just a little adds depth to your desserts!
Use a Light Touch with Mixers. Overmixing can make baked goods tough. Combine your wet and dry ingredients just until blended before folding in berries.
Why do you dust blueberries with flour?
The flour helps keep them from sinking to the bottom of the batter during baking. The flour creates a light coating that helps the berries stick to the batter, which helps even distribution throughout your muffins, cakes, or breads. Just toss them in a tsp or 2 of flour before gently folding them in!
What’s the best way to store leftover blueberry desserts?
Most blueberry baked goods can be stored at room temperature for 1–2 days or in the fridge for up to 5. Wrap them tightly or store in an airtight container.
