Kids Blueberry Bites

Kids can grow organic blueberries in a large pot on the patio for a handy super food that sweeps away free radicals, is antibacterial, heart and brain healthy, and high in antioxidants, fiber, and vitamins. For a tasty snack with a fruity burst, kids can make these healthy treats. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Kids can wash 1 cup of fresh organic blueberries and put them in a small bowl with 1 tsp organic maple syrup, 1 tbsp cane sugar, and ¼ tsp cinnamon. In a large bowl add 1¾ cup organic whole wheat pastry flour, take 2 or 3 tbsp of the flour to stir with the blueberries and set the small bowl aside. Combine the rest of the flour with ⅓ cup organic sugar, 1 tbsp baking powder, 1 tsp organic corn starch, ¼ tsp sea salt. Cut into this mixture 6 tbsp cold organic vegan butter. Kids can mix with a fork or their fingers until mixture has a coarse crumb consistency. Add the blueberries. Mix ½ cup organic unsweetened almond milk into the flour mixture and stir until well blended. Turn dough onto a floured bread board and knead gently 8 to 10 times. Roll into a 9” round and cut into 8 equal wedges. Cut each wedge into 3 triangles. Place triangles 1” apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake 15 minutes, until lightly browned.
