Description
Vibrant, soft, and slightly crisp around the edges, these blueberry cookies combine juicy bursts of fruit with a satisfying chew—perfect for snacking or gifting.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon alcohol-free vanilla extract
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, unthawed)
Optional: ½ tsp lemon zest, ½ cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until fluffy (about 3 minutes).
Add egg and vanilla; mix until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add dry ingredients to wet, mixing just until combined.
Fold in blueberries gently. If using frozen, do not thaw. Toss with 1 tbsp flour to prevent bleeding.
Scoop dough into 2 tbsp balls, place on pans spaced 2 inches apart.
Bake for 12–14 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
Cool on pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire rack.
Notes
For bakery-style cookies, chill dough 20 minutes before baking.
Add lemon zest for brightness.
Freeze dough balls for up to 3 months—bake from frozen with 2 extra minutes.
