Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for extra flavor)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest (optional, for brightness)
- 2 tablespoons milk (if needed for consistency)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
Step 3: In a large bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
Step 4: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Then, mix in the sour cream (or Greek yogurt) until smooth.
Step 5: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. If the dough is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk.
Step 6: Gently fold in the blueberries and lemon zest using a spatula, being careful not to crush the berries.
Step 7: Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop rounded dough portions onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8: Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
Step 9: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
