13 Top-Rated Blueberry Recipes

From pancakes and French toast to cobblers and pies, we've got 13 ways to put fresh blueberries to delicious use.

When you're making recipes with beautiful fresh blueberries, you'll want to keep a few things in mind. Fresh blueberries are at their best from May until early October. Look for firm, deeply colored berries that are uniform in size. Fresh blueberries will stay fresh for about 5 days. Before extra berries go bad, you can freeze them. To freeze blueberries, arrange them on a baking sheet in a single layer. Then put them in a plastic bag or other container. They should last in the freezer until blueberry season next year!

Now for a lucky 13 of our favorite blueberry recipes!
