You have to try this homemade Blueberry Cobbler Coffee Creamer if you like to add a little something more to your coffee in the morning.
It has a sweet, creamy flavor with just the right amount of blueberries and cinnamon. It tastes like dessert, but it makes your coffee feel like a hug in a mug.
The best thing? With just a few ingredients, you can make it in less than 15 minutes! My kids even want a little drip on their pancakes because it’s so tasty!
Ingredients and Tools
- A small pot
- Whisk
- Optional fine mesh strainer
- A glass jar or bottle to keep things in
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1 cup of milk (whole milk or your preferred non-dairy milk)
- 1/4 cup of fresh blueberries (or frozen)
- 2 tablespoons of sugar (or honey or maple syrup for a natural sweetener)
- 1-2 tablespoons of water
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon of almond essence (For more taste)
Instructions
- Put the blueberries, sugar, and a little bit of water in a small pot. Stir the berries every now and then while they cook over medium heat. This should take around 5 minutes.
- While the blueberries are cooking, use a fork or the back of a spoon to mash them. Let them cook for another 2–3 minutes, or until the mixture thickens a little.
- Stir in the heavy cream, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract after lowering the heat. While whisking, heat slowly (don’t boil!) until everything is heated and well mixed (approximately 3–5 minutes).
- If you want a smooth creamer, pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a glass container to get rid of any blueberry particles. Let it cool down to room temperature, then put it in the fridge.
Tips for Best Results
- While the blueberries are cooking, mash them up a bit to bring forth additional flavor.
- If you don’t want blueberry chunks in your coffee, strain the mixture to make an extremely smooth creamer.
- Taste as you go! You can change how sweet or cinnamon-y it is to suit your taste.
- If you don’t want dairy, use coconut milk or almond milk. It works great!
- Put it in a glass jar with a cover so you can easily pour it all week.
- No new blueberries? Use frozen blueberries or even blueberry preserves.
- No dairy? Use almond milk and coconut cream instead of heavy cream and milk.
- Do you want it to be sweeter? Add extra sugar or a little bit of maple syrup.
- Add some more flair? Add a little nutmeg or a splash of bourbon vanilla.
Storage and Usage
You may keep this creamer in the fridge for up to a week. Make it on Sunday and have nice coffee every day of the week! Before you use it, just shake the jar to mix everything up.
You may keep the creamer in the fridge for up to a week if you put it in a sealed glass container or bottle.
Shake the container before each use because the contents may separate on their own.
