You could try drying them... I ate my weight in dried (purchased) blueberries this year. They're great in cereal/granola or muffins. I try to freeze a lot every year, too.
There is a Redeemer. |

Mmmm, I need to see if I can still get blueberries at our local blueberry farm! Things were crazy there for awhile, but I think I could find a little time in the next week or so and take the kids for some. Thanks for the drying idea Ann!
Mollie, I'm planning to freeze them for now until I have time to do other things with them. Just fill up ziploc baggies and pile them in the freezer!

Mollie, I did a separate post a while back when I tried the MJF budget mix (pancake recipe)in my Belgian waffle maker. I used blueberries and strawberries on top...it was awesome. Try it for Breakfast, or Dessert, or anytime! Kids like playing tic-tac-toe with the berries on the waffles, too. Or maybe checkers? Good luck with those berries. I am "blue" with envy!

Here's one I forgot about. (DUH! We make this for Christmas morning breakfast, it's yummy!)
Overnight Blueberry French Toast
6 slices day old bread, cut into 1# cubes
1 8oz pkg cream cheese cut into small pieces
1C blueberries (fresh or frozen)
6 eggs, beaten
1C milk
1/2tsp vanilla extract
3T maple syrup
Lightly grease 8x8 baking dish (use 9x13 if doubled). Arrange 1/2 of the bread cubes in dish, top w/cream cheese cubes. Sprinkle w/blueberries and top w/bread cubes. In bowl, mix eggs, milk, vanilla, and maple syrup. Pour over bread cubes. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
The next morning, remove dish from fridge 1/2 hour before baking. Preheat oven to 350, cover and bake for 30 min, uncover and bake 30 min until firm and slightly brown.
Blueberry Sauce
1/2C white sugar
1T cornstarch
1/2C water
1/2C blueberries
1 1/2tsp butter
In med saucepan combine sugar, cornstarch and water. Bring to boil. Stir constantly, cook for 3-4 min, add blueberries. Reduce heat, simmer 10 minutes. Stir in butter. Serve over warm French toast!
These recipes are easily doubled. I've never made a small dish, it goes too fast!

Mollie, I could never have enough blueberries. I put them in so many things from pie, crisp, pancakes, french toast, breada etc. You can freeze them if you have too many, they will keep. Do you have an area where you can sell them?? Like a little stand or something. I'd be in blueberry heaven.
