I love blueberries! I’ve tried to grow blueberries several times here on the Homestead. But in the botanical hole of death that is our yard, it’s not been successful with the exception of my Miniature Blueberry planted in a galvanized tub.
So instead I usually buy them. I can’t typically afford the fresh berries but I’m constantly using frozen blueberries by stirring them into my Homemade Yogurt or blending them with frozen bananas to make a healthy, cold summertime treat.
Sometimes I thaw them & include them in my mixed-fruit bowl when I’m serving a cool yet healthy dessert.
But recently a friend invited me to go with her to a you-pick place to pick fresh blueberries. Oh how delicious, I came home with about a gallon of those big beautiful blueberries! I can’t typically afford to buy fresh blueberries so this was a treat indeed.
Sure I still stirred them into my yogurt and even ate some by themselves. But I really wanted to do something special with them.
Hummm… I know, I’ll make homemade blueberry muffins!
