Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • ½ cup Unsalted Butter softened
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar light or dark
  • ½ cup Granulated Sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1 large Egg or flax egg for vegan option
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract pure extract recommended
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour or gluten-free flour blend
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder fresh for best results
  • ½ teaspoon Salt to enhance flavor
For the Fruity Filling
  • 1 cup Fresh Blueberries or frozen if necessary
  • ¼ cup Blueberry Jam or raspberry jam for variation
For the Crunchy Topping
  • ½ cup Flour for streusel topping
  • ¼ cup Brown Sugar light or dark
  • ¼ cup Cold Cubed Butter for crumbliness
  • ½ teaspoon Cinnamon for warm spice notes
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt to elevate taste

Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • whisk
  • spatula

Method
 

Prepare the Streusel
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, cold cubed butter, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Use a fork or your fingers to blend the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs, about 5 minutes. Once crumbly, cover the bowl and refrigerate.
Make Cookie Dough
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and both sugars together until light and fluffy, approximately 3-5 minutes. Add in one egg and the vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
Mix Dry Ingredients
  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well blended. Gradually incorporate this dry mix into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
Fold in Blueberries
  1. Carefully fold the fresh blueberries into the cookie dough, taking care not to break them. Gently turning the mixture with a spatula will help maintain the berries’ shape while evenly distributing them throughout.
Assemble Cookies
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Using a cookie scoop or two spoons, portion out the dough onto the sheet, leaving adequate space between each mound. Add small dollops of blueberry jam onto each dough round, swirling slightly.
Add Streusel
  1. Retrieve the chilled streusel from the fridge and sprinkle a generous amount atop each cookie dough portion, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
Bake
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden while the centers remain soft.
Cool and Serve
  1. Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool further.
