Can you use dehydrated blueberries instead of fresh? I recently bought some dehydrated blueberries and am having trouble finding out how to use them in baking. Should I plump them first? Or should I just use them like I would use raisons? I appreciate any suggestions. Actually, this crisp is about the worst use you could make of your dehydrated blueberries. They're precious as gold! Use them in muffins and coffeecakes (yes, as you'd use raisins). Depends on how wet the batter is/how long whatever it is bakes, if you have to rehydrate; they'll often rehydrate themselves if the batter is wet enough. Rehydrate and use in oatmeal cookies, like raisins. Add to granola, or granola bars. Or stir them into your breakfast oatmeal. Add to an apple pie. And enjoy- PJH
