Delightful Blueberry Waffles from Freeze Dried Blueberries
Freeze Dried Blueberries take a bit longer to rehydrate than most other fruits because they are a whole berry. Most of the other freeze dried fruits are slices, dices or otherwise chopped. In spite of the longer re-hydration process, the wait is worth it as these berries work great in your favorite recipes. Of course, you can also snack on them right out of the can.
Freeze Dried Blueberries are quite tasty and versatile. Blueberries are also a nutritional powerhouse and have a high level of antioxidants. They add flavor and a sweet boost to smoothies, breakfast cereals, pancakes, muffins, breads, cobblers and more.
