Blueberry Handpies

Blueberry Hand pies served on Wild Bower Studio Sun Ray platter and dinner plates

While last year I was very focused on foraging, this year I’m all about pick your own. It’s so satisfying to fill a bucket full of delicious treats. Finally we’ve made it to blueberry season and let me tell you… blueberries are incredible right off the bush. It’s amazing how different food tastes in the store vs from the garden.

The past weekend we had some friends over with their young daughter, who loved blueberries. So we decided what better way to enjoy the day but to pick our own blueberries which we now call Bloobs. Off to Saunderskill Farm!

It was a beautiful day and a really easy ride over to the farm. We were part of a hand full of groups who had a similar idea so we all had a lot of space to really get into it. Fast forward and we’ve filled 10 quarts!!! Once we returned home it was time to start figuring out what to do with all these bloobs. Jam was obviously the first step in this process and then time to bake. We wanted to make something that our young picker could easily handle so we went with blueberry hand pies. These treats are super easy to make and really easy to take with you on the go. We used this recipe from King Arthur Flour as our general guide.
