Hand-Picked Blueberry Recipes for Blueberry Fest
I tell you – there is nothing more enticing than a big batch of blueberries. I mean, take the photo above for example. Tell me you don’t want to go find a pint of fresh blueberries and down them, or maybe make some Lemon-Blueberry Muffins. Well, when I went to South Haven, Michigan (the blueberry capital of the United States) back in June, I was hoping to do just that. Teased by an entire store dedicated to blueberries, I planned on buying some fresh blueberries straight from the source. But silly me, blueberry season is not until July or August. Hadn’t I heard of Blueberry Festival?!
No, I hadn’t. And when I found out it was happening on August 6-9th of this year, I regretted planning my South Haven, Michigan trip for June. But, for those of you who might be closer to the source of fresh blueberries galore, I do have some recipes for you. And maybe even for the rest of us – while we might not live in Michigan, we have access to some imported blueberries, they just might not be AS fresh :)
Here are some of my favorite hand-picked blueberry recipes from Recipe4Living.com:
Blueberry Smoothies
Blueberry Cream Pie
Blueberry Bread
Blueberry Muffins
Blueberry Bake
Blueberry Tart
Wild Blueberry Sauce
Tropical Blueberry Salad
Blueberry Cake with Lemon Glaze
Blueberry Pie with Marmalade

Posted by Laura at July 24th, 2009, 10:15 amI just went bluberry picking and used my bounty to make blueberry muffins, yeasted blueberry buns, and I am brewing blueberry liqueur. I posted about the muffins, but I will get around to the rest pretty soon.
And I still have berries to bake with! Thanks for the recipe ideas.
