I flash-freezed a ton of them to use in smoothies, desserts, and what-not over the next year until I get more. I am also planning on canning some blueberry syrup with a recipe from the Ball Blue Book which I turn to for all things canning.
I also made these delicious blueberry cake bars...
Blueberry Cake Bars
1 package yellow cake mix
2 sticks of butter, melted
1 cup old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 cups of fresh blueberries
1/2 cup sugar
Place first 6 ingredients in bowl and mix thoroughly. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of this mixture for the topping and set aside. Pour remaining batter into a greased 9x13 pan. Press into bottom of pan. Place blueberries and sugar in bowl to combine. Pour onto the crust. Scatter pieces of reserved crust mixture over top. Bake at 350 until light brown about 40-45 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
And don't forget about this scone recipe that I posted about a while back. These are heavenly! I recently ate them again while at my parents' place and they never cease to satisfy.
Like I said, I love all the fruit in summer. What do you like to make with fresh blueberries? I am picking up my peach order today, so I will be pretty busy with all those fuzzy guys for the next while.
I will definitely try those bars. I can't wait to hear how the syrup comes out. The stuff I buy is good but homemade where you know all the ingredients...yum!
ReplyDeleteMy crew always requests blueberry cobbler. I just canned 1/2 bushel of peaches yesterday. Have fun!:)
ReplyDeleteThose look amazing. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteThose bars look insanely delicious! I must go out and get some cake mix to make them!
ReplyDeleteMy 19 month old daughter eats them plain, like candy.
ReplyDeleteYum! I bought 10 lbs of blueberries last week. I am going to try the blueberry cake bars. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteoh my that look delish!!!! gonna have to try both those recipes...thanks!
ReplyDeleteI just bought fresh blueberries yesterday, so the timing is providential! I am planning on making blueberry pancakes tomorrow, but I think I will have plenty left to try this recipe. Looks tasty!
ReplyDeleteSadly, my blueberry bushes planted this year grew from teeny little sticks in the ground ... they're growing, but it will be awhile before I'm making blueberry bars! ... unless I'm only making "a" bar. I might have to break down and buy some though for this recipe ...
ReplyDeleteThose look soooo yummy!
ReplyDeleteOh these all look wonderful and there is not much in life better for you than blueberries!
ReplyDeletethose bars look delish. I will be trying out this recipe tonight. Thanks for the post. xx
ReplyDeleteI love soft fruits!In the little park where I let my dog run free, I found an amazing blackberry bramble... so I actually have a nice basket of bluberries waiting for me (and oven ;P) in my kitchen...
ReplyDeleteI'd love to taste your sweet cake bars...they look delicious!!!
Just a heads up, I just read this in my google reader without opening the full post. At the bottom of the page there was a link to take someone to "Consumer News". It's an advertisement (and a scam) for loosing weight with a berry supplement but they make it look and sound like a legitimte news page. You may have already known about it, but I wouldn't want your readers to think that you were supporting a company like that.
ReplyDeleteBoth recipes look good, but um I am a sucker for scones. I definitely want to try that one out.
ReplyDeleteYUMMM! you just can't beat fresh blueberries!! This looks delish!
