Blueberry eating

Now what to do with the blueberries once you've picked them? Here are some ideas.

Blueberry Banana Muffins: I happened to have some ripe bananas around so I felt like I was killing two birds with one stone. I used this recipe and liked it very much. In fact, I plan to use it again in the very near future. I did, however, find myself making some changes to it (don't ask me why, I usually follow a recipe as it's written the first time around), like using a yogurt-sour cream mix instead of the buttermilk and wheat flour for part of the white and brown sugar for part of the granulated. It worked. This recipe looks similar.

Blueberry Sorbet: I had sampled the sorbet from Seedling at our farmer's market and was inspired to make my own. I didn't have any mint, which they paired with blueberries, but we did use their basic sorbet recipe. Yum. And so easy.

Blueberry tart (or pie): In the past, I've always used this recipe. I still love it. But after trying out a new strawberry pie this spring, I decided to branch out on the blueberry, too. I wanted to use filling made from fruit vs. jello and deliberated between the one I just mentioned (using blueberries instead of strawberries) and this one. It came down to the first since I liked it before and happened to be out of gelatin and jam. I wasn't in love with the Nilla wafer crust, however, from that recipe, so I used the shortbread tart crust from the second. And freshly whipped cream. The result: I still didn't love the crust, but I am very much in favor of making the filling from fresh fruit. And eating it. Very good.

Blueberry Parfait: I have not made this yet, but figure it would be an easy way to use up some remaining fresh berries. These two recipes are quite different from each other, but sound good-Lemon Blueberry Parfait and Ricotta cheese and Blueberry Parfait.

Had to buy myself a couple of pints of blueberries after seeing your post, just so I could eat them fresh! But I really want some of that tart.
