Blueberry Maple Pie Bar

I stopped by Back In The Day Bakery and had a blueberry maple pie bar. It was yummy. I love blueberry in baked goods. The flavor combination of blueberry and maple reminded me of Anarchy in A Jar’s Easy Like Sunday Morning preserves. Laena McCarthy is the proprietor of Anarchy In A Jar. I have known her years even before her jams were selling out at The Brooklyn Flea. By the way, both Laena McCarthy and Cheryl and Griffith Day, owners of Back In Day Bakery have cookbooks.

Blueberry Danish

I like blueberries on their own, but I love them in a pastry or dessert. In fact, when I am in a bakery, I will always choose a blueberry danish over an apple or apricot one. Recently I stopped in Savannah Coffee Roasters, and I ate this beautiful blueberry pastry in addition to my coffee. If you love to include berries, check out this round-up of summer berry recipes. Savannah Coffee Roasters is in the historic district of the city near hotels and the civic center. Apparently, they served JLo when she was in Savannah last week for the American Idol auditions.
