Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowls
  • 1 whisk
  • 1 rubber spatula
  • 1 baking sheet
  • 1 parchment paper
  • 1 measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 cooling rack

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries Can substitute with frozen blueberries.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
  • In another mixing bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter. Mix until smooth.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a rubber spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Fold in the fresh blueberries gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fritter bites are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the fritter bites to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
  • For extra sweetness, consider dusting the cooled fritter bites with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

For extra sweetness, consider dusting the cooled fritter bites with powdered sugar before serving.
You can substitute fresh blueberries with frozen ones, but ensure to add them directly from the freezer to avoid excess moisture.
These bites can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days at room temperature or frozen for longer preservation.
