It is no secret that I am a huge fan of blueberries.I proclaimed my love for blueberries in the very beginning of my blogging days - almost 10 years ago! I can't believe my blog will be 10 years old this December! Because of this, I want to share with you a round-up of my Top 10 Best Blueberry Recipes that I love to make and eat right here on Grumpy's Honeybunch!
Without a doubt, the recipe for Soft Blueberry Cookies is my very favorite and for a few reasons. First of all, because the base recipe originated from one of my Nanny's soft cookie recipes. Second of all they have blueberries in them! Lastly, because they are soft and delicious and are only the best cookie I have ever eaten! Obviously, it is a favorite of my readers also because it is my most popular recipe here on the blog!
If someone asked me, out of all the blueberry recipes on your blog, which one would you make after your Soft Blueberry Cookies ('cause lets face it, that is the one I always want to make first), it would have to be this recipe for Peach Blueberry Burrata Quesadilla. The creamy slightly salty burrata cheese combined with sweet blueberries and peaches wrapped up in a crispy quesadilla is to die for! If you haven't tried this combination, then you must do so soon!
I have been known to call our house the "pancake house". Basically because Grumpy loves pancakes. He's not as fond of blueberry pancakes as I am, but hey, it's easy to improvise if he's not feeling the berry. These Fluffy Blueberry Lemon Pancakes are my favorite recipe for pancakes. The lemon zest in the batter with blueberries really sets off the tastebuds!
What I love about this Cherry Blueberry Trifle is the fact that you can, and we did eat it for breakfast or dessert! As a matter of fact, Grumpy loves this so much that when I first made it he insisted he have it every morning for breakfast! Not only is it delicious, but it is super easy to make ahead of time (like the night before) and just take out of the fridge in the morning to eat. Yes, you really want to try this one too!
It would not be the Grumpy Household if I didn't have a cocktail made with blueberries. After all, we love our cocktails! This Blueberry Basil Cosmopolitan is refreshing, summery, and delicious. Perfect to make during blueberry season!
When I first started blogging, it was my habit to make muffins on a regular basis. I would keep a few out for Grumpy and I, and the rest would go with me to work for the students and faculty to enjoy. Grumpy used to tell me they only loved me for my muffins. I disagree! I think they loved me for me too (but I think they do miss my muffins!) These Buttermilk Blueberry Muffins are the best blueberry muffin ever. I highly recommend you make this recipe ASAP.
Speaking of baking, blueberries and breakfast are a perfect match because they not only go great in muffins, but go great in scones! These are The Best Ever Blueberry Scones! Crispy outside, flaky inside with that burst of blueberry and lemon glaze. What's not to be perfect about them!
If you want easy and elegant, there is nothing easier, more elegant, or tastier than puff pastry dough. Just bake up a sheet and spread with the cream topping and sprinkle with blueberries, almonds, and a glaze. Blueberry Almond Cream Tart is so delicious that I'm ashamed proud to admit that Grumpy and I ate the whole thing ourselves the morning I made it. Yeah. You definitely want company around to help you eat this or you will probably do the same thing (or maybe you don't care?).
This Red, White, and Blueberry Pie is Grumpy's personal favorite. He would eat this whole thing by himself if I let him! Simple baked pie crust with no bake filling and a special surprise on the bottom layer!
Last but not least is this Blueberry French Toast Souffle. As a child I always preferred french toast over pancakes. Still kinda do, I just don't eat either very often anymore. Keeping the carb count low is important in our house these days so any and all of these treats are eaten in moderation. However, for a special weekend brunch, this is a must make! Make it individually or in a casserole, either way, whoever you're serving this to will feel very special!
Which one of my Best Blueberry Recipes will you make first?
