As their deep bluish-purple hue would suggest, blueberries are loaded with vitamins and minerals and more antioxidants than any other fruit. All this goodness adds up to tiny packages that may lower inflammation and your risk of chronic disease and infections, and support healthy blood sugar, skin, digestion, vision, blood pressure, cholesterol and cognition.<\/p>" } } , { "@type": "Question", "name": "Is this breakfast pastry healthy?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "
Besides all the health benefits of blueberries (see above), the puff pastry adds some energy-producing carbs, and the cream cheese has just enough fat to help slow down the pastry’s digestion and help keep blood sugar stable. You can stabilize blood sugar even more—and round out your breakfast—by serving this pastry with some form of eggs and veggies—like our Muffin Tin Spinach & Mushroom Mini Quiches<\/a> or “Egg in a Hole” Peppers with Avocado Salsa<\/a>.<\/p>"

"text": " Yes, you can. However, we suggest baking the pastry (through Step 6) and cooling completely, then gently placing it in a zip-top bag and refrigerating for up to three days. Then, continue with Step 7 and make the sweet topping when you’re ready to serve the pastry. Warm the pastry in a preheated 350°F oven or toaster oven until warm, then drizzle the topping over the pastry.<\/p>"

"text": " Absolutely. When using frozen berries<\/a> for baked goods, it's typically best to thaw them before adding them to a recipe, especially if the other ingredients can't take added moisture. There are several ways to thaw frozen berries. However, it's best to thaw the berries slowly in a covered bowl in the fridge because the flavor and texture will be much better. Other options include adding frozen berries to room-temperature water or setting them in a colander above a bowl. For all methods, the intent is to thaw the berries, then gently dry them, removing as much moisture as possible while keeping them intact.<\/p>"
