This page continues a blueberry dessert collection with five recipes that range from cakes to cookies and a slow-cooker bake. Each one uses blueberries in a different way, from folded batter and fruit layers to a simple topping or filling.
The recipes below focus on straightforward methods you can follow with pantry ingredients, pie filling, fresh fruit, or a boxed cake mix. Several of them finish with crumbly toppings or creamy layers that give the blueberry flavor more contrast.

Blueberry Cream Cheese Crumb Cake
Blueberry Cream Cheese Crumb Cake layers a rich cream cheese filling, fresh blueberries, and a soft sour cream cake batter in one 9-by-13-inch pan. The batter is spread in two stages: half goes in first, then the filling and blueberries, and the remaining batter is dropped over the top before the crumb topping is added.
The crumb topping is made by cutting cold butter into flour and sugar until pea-sized crumbs form, then sprinkling them evenly over the cake. It bakes until the center tests clean and the top stays fairly light, and the cake is cooled before cutting so the cream cheese layer can settle.

Banana Blueberry Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies: A Healthy Start to Your Day
Banana Blueberry Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies combine mashed ripe bananas, rolled oats, blueberries, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt into a simple spoonable dough. Honey or maple syrup can be added for sweetness, but the basic mixture is built from fruit and oats for a soft breakfast-style cookie.
After mixing, spoonfuls are dropped onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and flattened slightly with the back of a spoon. They bake until the edges are golden brown and the tops are set, then cool briefly on the pan before moving to a rack.

Blueberry Poke Cake
Blueberry Poke Cake starts with a prepared white cake baked in a 13-by-9-inch pan, then gets filled with blueberry pie filling that has been blended smooth. Holes are poked into the warm cake while it is still easy to handle, allowing the filling to sink into the cake instead of sitting on top.
The cake is finished with whipped topping and a buttery graham cracker mixture made from melted butter, brown sugar, and crushed graham crackers. After the topping is spread and sprinkled on, the cake chills for at least 4 hours so the layers settle and the dessert turns cool and creamy.

Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Lemon Blueberry Dump Cake
Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Lemon Blueberry Dump Cake keeps things simple with blueberries, lemon pie filling, cake mix, and melted butter. The fruit goes into a lightly greased slow cooker first, followed by the pie filling, dry cake mix, and butter poured over the top without stirring.
The dessert cooks covered until the filling is bubbly and the topping is set, either on high or on low depending on the schedule. Once it is done, it rests briefly before being served warm, which helps the layers hold together when spooned out.

Blueberry Buckle with Brown Sugar Topping
Blueberry Buckle with Brown Sugar Topping is a tender blueberry cake baked in a square dish and finished with a cinnamon crumb layer. The batter is made by creaming sugar and butter, then adding egg and vanilla before alternating the dry ingredients with milk and folding in fresh blueberries.
The topping comes together by mixing brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon, then cutting in chilled butter until coarse crumbs form. That crumb mixture is scattered over the batter before baking, and the buckle is done when the center comes out clean and the topping is golden brown.
