Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ cup granulated sugar
Wet Ingredients
- ¼ cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and granulated sugar until well combined for an even rise and sweetness.
- Cream Butter and Eggs: In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter with sugar until light and fluffy; then add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to fully incorporate and create a smooth batter.
- Add Flavor and Milk: Stir in the vanilla extract and whole milk to the wet mixture until everything is fully combined, producing a moist and flavorful base.
- Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture just until combined to avoid overmixing which can make the bites dense. Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries to distribute them without crushing.
- Shape and Bake: Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet shaping them into bunny silhouettes or bite-sized rounds. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they turn golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Notes
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor and texture; frozen blueberries can be used but may require extra flour to balance moisture.
- Shaping the batter into bunny shapes can be done with a small cookie cutter or freehand for a festive presentation.
- Serve warm or at room temperature for a delicious treat perfect for Easter celebrations.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
