Notes
Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh:
I love using fresh blueberries but if they are out of season frozen can be used. You want to thaw the blueberries first. Place them in a strainer and rinse them with cold water. Pat dry then add them to your recipe.
How to thaw frozen blueberries:
The best way to thaw frozen blueberries would be to place them in the fridge over night. Otherwise you can place them in cold water to thaw in the bowl.
