Time 1h5m

Yield 8 buns

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (1 ounce) package active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water
3 cups flour (1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 white is good)
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons vegetable shortening
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen and thawed)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch, dissolved in
1/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten with 1 teaspoon water for an egg wash
sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Let stand until mixture starts to bubble, about 5 minutes.
  • Sift together flour, sugar and salt. Place in the bowl of an electric mixer. Add shortening, yeast and water, eggs and vanilla and beat until dough is smooth. Let stand while you are preparing filling.
  • Mix filling ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • On a well floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Add flour whenever dough begins to stick. Cut dough into pieces 5 inches square. Place 1 tablespoon filling in center of square, then fold dough over on top and pinch to close. Pinch ends closed. Cover buns with a towel and let stand 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brush buns with egg wash and sprinkle tops with sugar. Bake until browned, about 16 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!

These buns are a great way to use up leftover blueberries. I often make them when I have a few blueberries left over from a smoothie or pancake recipe.

These buns are a great make-ahead breakfast or snack. I often make a batch on the weekend and then freeze them for later.
