Cooking with blueberries is always so beautiful and as silly as it sounds, even more beautiful when made in this white pan. Berries are just so beautiful when they start the break down.
This recipe allows for a lot of creativity and substitutions if blueberries aren’t your thing.
A few recipe tips are below:
- You can use any berries for this recipe, or even mixed berries would be great. In the summer, try it with peaches – YUM!
- Add ice cream (or even yogurt) for extra deliciousness
- For some extra kick, add in lemon zest or a dollop of lemon sorbet
- If you want to enjoy this with the kiddos, simply double the recipe to serve a family of 4

Oh my, blueberries make me happy! I wouldn’t share, even for Valentine’s Day! Would frozen berries work as well, or do you think they’d be too mushy? I buy 20 lbs of blueberries every summer (did I say they make me happy??), so have plenty of frozen for new recipes! Thanks!

Hahahaha I love that you love blueberries so much. I think if you drained the liquid they’d work, I’ve never tried it so I’m not 100% sure, but I’d love to know how it turns out for you!
