Ingredients

Scale

Blueberry Puree

  • 1½ cups Blueberries, fresh or frozen (thawed)

Brownie Batter

  • 10 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1¼ cups Granulated sugar
  • 2 large Eggs, room temperature
  • ½ teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon Sea salt
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour, sifted

Glaze

  • 1 cup Powdered sugar, sifted
  • 2 tablespoons Milk
  • ⅛ teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare Blueberry Puree: Blend 1½ cups of fresh or thawed blueberries until smooth to create a vibrant blueberry puree.
  2. Cook the Puree: Pour the puree into a saucepan over medium-low heat and gently simmer, stirring constantly, until it reduces to about ½ cup. Remove from heat and let it cool completely, then set aside.
  3. Prep the Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line an 8×8 inch glass baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
  4. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter and granulated sugar. Stir in the eggs, vanilla extract, and sea salt until the mixture is uniform in color and well combined.
  5. Fold in Blueberry Reduction: Gently fold the cooled blueberry reduction into the wet ingredient mixture, incorporating it evenly.
  6. Combine Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the sifted all-purpose flour to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined without overmixing to keep the brownies tender.
  7. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Bake on the middle rack for 35-40 minutes, checking around 30 minutes, until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Make & Apply Glaze: In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and silky. Once the brownies have completely cooled, spread half the glaze evenly over the surface. After it hardens, spread the remaining glaze on top and allow it to set fully.
  9. Cut and Store: Cut the brownies into 16 equal squares. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Use fresh or fully thawed blueberries for the best consistency in the reduction.
  • Ensure the blueberry reduction is completely cool before folding it into the batter to prevent cooking the eggs prematurely.
  • Do not overmix after adding the flour to maintain a tender crumb.
  • Allow the glaze to harden between layers for a beautiful double-coated finish.
  • These brownies are best enjoyed within 3-4 days when stored properly.
