INGREDIENT NOTES
These are some of the key ingredients for this recipe. For a full list of ingredients, check out the recipe card below.
- Blueberries: I recommend using fresh blueberries instead of frozen blueberries as they have less liquid in them.
- Blueberry jam: The blueberry jam helps add even more blueberry flavor.
- Butter: The butter is melted in the microwave or in small sauce pan over low heat. Let it cool down to room temperature after it's melted. Use salted or unsalted butter.
- Brown sugar: The brown sugar gives more moister to the cookie dough, which makes for a more soft and chewy texture.
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
Here is how to make and bake these Blueberry Cookies. This recipe doesn't need an electric mixer. Just a large bowl and a rubber spatula.
The full recipe is down below in the recipe card.
STEP 1: Mix together melted, cooled down, butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar for 1 minute with a rubber spatula. Add the egg, vanilla extract and mix it in until combined.
STEP 2: In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients and with spatula mix it together until just combined.
STEP 3: Add the fresh blueberries and gently fold them in. Then add the blueberry jam and with a butterknife swirl it into the cookie dough. It’s important not to over mix the dough.
STEP 4: Using a 2 tbsp/ 1.3 ounce cookie scoop, scoop out 14 cookies and place them pre scooped in the fridge. Let them sit in the fridge for 1 hour.
While the cookies rest, preheat the oven to 180ºC/ 355ºF conventional oven. Prepare a cookie sheet or baking tray with parchment paper.
STEP 5: Place 6 cookie dough balls per baking tray and bake them for 12-13 minutes. Once baked, let them cool down on the baking tray for 5 minutes as they still will be soft when they are done. After they have cooled down a bit, use a spatula to lift them onto a cooling rack.
EXPERT BAKING TIPS
- Use a kitchen scale: My default setting for my recipes is grams. It is the most precise way of measuring out your ingredients, I therefore highly recommend using a kitchen scale.
- Don't over mix your batter: I always use a spatula after everything has mixed together, to give it one final gentle fold together. This makes sure everything in the bottom of the mixing bowl has been mixed into the batter.
- Light vs. dark baking pans: For the best result, use an aluminum baking pan, greased with butter and lined with baking paper in the bottom. Aluminum pans are light in color and therefore attract less heat. That means it bakes more gently which results in a softer cake. If you use a black baking pan it'll attract a lot more heat. That will then give a darker crust, which can result in a dryer cake.
