This is an amazing recipe! I loved that I was able to learns all the positive benefits you get from blueberries making it all worthwhile. Not to mention curing a sweet tooth all while omitting resistive digestive ingredients.
Even better you can freeze and store. Especially since I’m a frequent coffee drinker 🙃❤️
