Let’s Make it Together

Preheat your oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grab a baking sheet and line it with parchment paper so nothing sticks.

Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined. This step ensures even distribution of flavors throughout your Bunny Bites.

Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, mix together milk, melted butter, and eggs until smooth. The blend should appear creamy and inviting like a warm hug

Fold in blueberries: Gently fold in fresh blueberries into the wet mixture. Be careful not to mash them we want those lovely little explosions when you take a bite

Combine mixtures: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients while stirring gently. The batter should be thick yet pourable imagine thick pancake batter

Shape into bunnies: Using two spoons or your hands (if you’re feeling adventurous), shape the batter into small bunny forms on the prepared baking sheet. Give them space to expand while baking.

Bake until golden: Place your tray in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until they turn golden brown on top. You’ll know they’re done when they smell heavenly

Cool down: Once baked, let them cool on a wire rack before serving. The anticipation will drive everyone wild trust me

Serve with flair: Serve these adorable Bunny Bites warm with whipped cream or yogurt on the side. They’re irresistible on their own but even better with something creamy
