Can dried blueberries be substituted for fresh or frozen fruit? Yes, OliveNation dried blueberries can be substituted for fresh following these tips. For baked goods that call for fresh blueberries, use half the amount of dried blueberries as you would fresh. Dried blueberries will absorb some of the liquid in a recipe that calls for fresh berries. To compensate for that, either rehydrate the dried blueberries or increase the liquid in your recipe by adding a 1/4 cup of water.

Are dried blueberries as nutritious as fresh ones? Yes! Dried blueberries are packed with all the same vitamins, minerals, and nutritional benefits such as fiber and antioxidants. USDA research indicates fresh blueberries rank number one in antioxidants compared to other fruits, and studies have confirmed that dried blueberries have four times the antioxidant content than fresh blueberries.

How do you reconstitute dried blueberries? Dried blueberries can be used as is or rehydrated to control moisture content. To rehydrate dried blueberries, soak them in hot water, juice, or liqueur for 10 to 20 minutes, then drain and use. The soaking liquid can also be used in sauces, smoothies, or to replace liquid content in creams, cereals, or overnight oats.
