Notes

  • Frozen Berries: If using frozen blueberries, thaw and drain them well to prevent a watery filling.
  • Adjust Sweetness: Taste your berries and add more or less sugar depending on how sweet they are.
  • Bake on a Sheet Pan: Place your baking dish on a sheet pan to catch any potential drips while baking.
