Find blueberry bliss in these Baked Blueberry Fritter Bites! Fresh blueberries baked into bite-sized fritters that are tender on the inside, crisp on the outside and coated in a sweet blueberry glaze.
love fritters! Fritters are my fave! Seriously, I can’t go to a new donut shop without trying their fritters. If you can’t fry a good fritter, then you can’t call yourself a good donut shop. I couldn’t let this year go by without sharing another fritter bite recipe and blueberry was a no-brainer for the flavor choice. Blueberry fritters are definitely my fave! These little bites of blueberry bliss turned out so so delicious!
Baked Blueberry Bliss
Moist and tender on the inside with fresh juicy blueberries all throughout while still nice and crisp on the outside (like a good fritter should be!). They’re covered in a sweet blueberry glaze for an even bolder blueberry fritter experience. These little fritter bites are always a crowd favorite when I make them for breakfast or brunch. They’re easy to make, hard to believe they’re baked, and party perfect!
How to Serve and Store Blueberry Fritter Bites
I betcha can’t eat just one! 😉 If you’re a blueberry fritter lover like me, you’ll go crazy over these baked blueberry fritter bites.
For breakfast or brunch, serve baked fritter bites warm or at room temperature. For dessert, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Store any leftovers in an airtight container on the counter for up to three days.
Ingredients:
For the Fritter Batter:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 containers (5.3 ounces each) blueberry Greek yogurt
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
For the Blueberry Glaze:
2 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup milk
2 teaspoons blueberry jam or pureed blueberries
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and yogurt until smooth. Mix these wet ingredients into the dry ones until just combined, then carefully fold in the blueberries.
Distribute the batter into the muffin cups, filling each nearly to the top. Bake for 15 minutes or until they begin to turn a golden hue.
Transfer the fritters to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Broil on high for 3-4 minutes until slightly caramelized, watching carefully to prevent burning.
For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and blueberry jam until smooth. Dip each fritter top into the glaze, then place back on the baking sheet. Broil for a few more minutes, then let them set for 15 minutes before serving.
