Ingredients

  • 1 pint 2 cups blueberries (or more)

Instructions

  • Prepare a baking sheet (with at least 1/2 in. lip) by laying a piece of parchment paper flat onto the baking sheet.
  • Wash berries with cold water or fruit wash, and transfer them onto paper towels and allow them to dry completely.
  • Once dry, prepare berries by removing stems, leaves, and any overly ripe berries.
  • Transfer berries onto the baking sheet, making sure to spread them out evenly. It's best if the berries are not touching one another so that they don't freeze together.
  • Freeze for around 30-60 minutes or until berries are hard and completely frozen.
  • Remove from the freezer and use a spatula to scrape frozen berries off of the baking sheet.
  • Transfer blueberries into a freezer-safe gallon-size bag. Remove as much air from the bag as possible and seal tightly.
  • Store berries in the freezer for easy access to smoothies and baking for up to 3 months.

Tips & Notes

  • Feel free to freeze as many pints of blueberries as you wish.
