This Homemade Blueberry Sugar combines sweet blueberries with granulated sugar for a taste of summer no matter the season! Add it to baked goods, flavor butter, use it to rim cocktail glasses, and more!
Pour a few tablespoons sugar and all the freeze-dried blueberries into a coffee grinder or food processor. Make sure the bowl is completely dry before you begin! (If using a food processor, you may have to use ¼ cup sugar to get the blueberries to process finely, as it has a larger bowl.)
Process the sugar and blueberries until the blueberries are ground finely. This process nearly "powders" the sugar, which is why you don't want to process all the sugar at once.
Pour the sugar/blueberry mixture into a bowl with the remaining sugar and whisk to combine. Sugar can be used immediately, and will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to six months.Enjoy!
Notes
Note on freeze-dried blueberries: Make sure that you're using *freeze-dried* blueberries, as they're free of moisture and will process into a powder. Regular "dried" blueberries will not! You can easily change the color/amount of blueberry flavor in the Blueberry Sugar by adding more or less freeze-dried blueberries than are listed in the recipe.
