Zucchini Muffins with Blueberries

The end of summer means it's time for zucchini season. Are you cheering at the thought of having too many green veggies to deal with?

We enjoy making healthy dinners with them, but I honestly love baking with zucchini so much more. Some of our favorite things to make are zucchini bundt cake, zucchini bread, or zucchini muffins with blueberries.

Why This Recipe Works

You are going to love how moist zucchini makes these muffins. Shredded zucchini is similar to using applesauce or bananas in baked goods.

It adds a great texture and keeps everything moist and delicious. Zucchini also has a mild flavor, so you can pair it with just about anything.

By adding blueberries, you get the benefits of veggies AND fruits in your breakfast muffins. These blueberry zucchini muffins have plenty of fresh, juicy berries in each one. If you love berries in your muffins, you will love these raspberry white chocolate muffins, too!

Plus, the sugar glaze drizzled on top adds a sweet taste that makes these zucchini muffins completely irresistible.

Easy Blueberry Pie

Enjoy an Easy Blueberry Pie made with homemade blueberry pie filling and a flakey golden crust. This classic dessert is easy to make and your family will love it all year long.

A white plate with a slice of pie and ice cream on it.

Blueberry pie and homemade cherry pie are classic desserts that are perfect all year long. We love making both of them for 4th of July and for Thanksgiving. No matter what time of year it is, there is always room for a fresh fruit pie.

The biggest problem with a homemade blueberry pie is getting the filling to bake just right. A runny pie is not good.

Blueberries are a juicy fruit, so we have found that cooking the pie filling first helps to eliminate some of the excess moisture in the filling.

Why This Recipe Works

A blueberry pie is one of the easiest desserts you will ever make. A pre-made crust keeps things easy if you are a new baker. You can make them so pretty with a lattice pie top or cutting shapes into the top crust.

The best part about this pie is that the homemade blueberry pie filling can be made ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator until you are ready to bake. The filling in this pie is so good and tastes like summer.

There is nothing better than serving slices of this easy blueberry pie with homemade vanilla ice cream. It's sure to become one of your family's favorite desserts.
