Give me your favorite recipes using fresh blueberries, please!

We went camping this past weekend and went blueberry picking. It was so much fun! For those in my area, it was in Graveyard Fields up near Mt. Pisgah on the Blue Ridge Parkway. We were late to the game a bit, but we still got a lot of great berries. I found out the prime picking time is late August.

 

I made blueberries turnovers today for a special treat. I am planning to make blueberry pancakes one morning this week. I will still have a ton of blueberries so I can freeze some. Got any great blueberry recipes?

Blueberry pie made using the recipe in my Joy of Cooking Cookbook.

 

My dh loves it when I add them to his waffles or pancakes.

Super easy one bowl Blueberry-Pecan Cake from Cooking Light magazine, August 2001.

 

I make this all the time - it's one of the few cakes my non-dessert-eating dh will eat! The only recipe that MIL has asked for! You must try this cake!

We put some blueberries in a bowl with a dollop of sourcream and sprinkle brown sugar over that. Yummy!!

Blueberry muffins! Let cool, put in freezer bag. When you want to eat, pop in microwave 20-30 sec & it tastes like new! :) YUM!

 

When freezing, put blueberries on a flat cookie sheet so they will freeze individually. Once frozen, put them in a freezer bag. You will be able to use them all through the winter, a little at a time, so you don't have to figure everything out right now! :)

You dont have to freeze them on cookie sheets. You don't rinse them before freezing them so they won't stick together when you put them in freezer bags. WE have been picking and freezing blueberries for 10yrs and this is how we always do it.

My daughter loves blueberry smoothies. I make them with plain or vanilla flavored yogurt, frozen oj concentrate and blueberries. She loves them. I also freeze them into popsicles for her.

Before I even posted this thread, I was looking on allrecipes.com and found a similar recipe to the one you linked. I am making that today. :001_smile:
