Blueberry Fritters with Vanilla Glaze

There’s something so nostalgic about homemade fritters—golden on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and bursting with fruit.

These Blueberry Fritters with Vanilla Glaze are everything I crave in a summer morning treat or a cozy weekend brunch.

They’re fried to perfection and topped with a sweet, silky glaze that makes each bite melt in your mouth.

Why I Love This Recipe

They’re the perfect mix of crispy, cakey, and juicy.

The batter is simple, yet it delivers bakery-style results.

That glaze? Just the right amount of vanilla-sweet magic.

They feel like a special treat, but come together with pantry basics.

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Fresh blueberries – Juicy and bright, they burst slightly when fried.

Eggs and sugar – For a light, rich, slightly sweet base.

Butter – Melted into the batter and glaze for richness.

Flour and baking powder – Create a fluffy, golden crumb.

Milk – Thins out the batter and gives the glaze its pourable texture.

Powdered sugar & vanilla – Classic combo for that glossy, sweet glaze.

Pro Tips Before You Start

Use fresh blueberries – They hold up better than frozen when fried.

Keep oil at 340–350°F – Use a thermometer for consistent frying.

Don’t overcrowd the pan – Fry in batches so they cook evenly.

Use a cookie scoop or measuring cup – For evenly sized fritters.

Glaze while warm – Helps the glaze melt slightly into the fritter.

How to Make Blueberry Fritters with Vanilla Glaze

Step 1: Make the Batter

In a bowl, use a hand mixer to combine melted butter, sugar, and eggs until smooth.

Step 2: Add Dry Ingredients

Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Add to the egg mixture. Batter will be thick.

Step 3: Add Milk and Berries

Mix in milk with a hand mixer until the batter thins.

Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.

Step 4: Fry the Fritters

Heat oil in a deep skillet to 340–350°F.

Drop in ¼ cup scoops of batter, frying each side until golden brown. Work in batches.

Step 5: Make the Glaze

In a separate bowl, beat melted butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth and pourable.

Step 6: Glaze and Serve

Spoon glaze over each warm fritter.

Let set slightly, then serve and enjoy.

What to Serve It With

Hot coffee or chai latte – The warm spices complement the sweet glaze.

Lemon yogurt or whipped cream – Lightens and balances each bite.

Fresh berries – For a vibrant, fruity side.

Iced tea or lemonade – Brightens the richness.

Vanilla ice cream – Make it a dessert fritter sundae!

Variations / Substitutions

Use raspberries or chopped strawberries – For a red berry twist.

Add lemon zest to the glaze – For a bright citrus kick.

Make it spiced – Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.

Try a maple glaze – Swap vanilla for maple extract.

Air-fry option – Not as crisp, but works in a pinch with a lightly sprayed basket.

Storage & Leftovers

Room temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Fridge: Keep up to 4 days, but reheat before serving.

Reheat: Best in the oven or air fryer to bring back crispness.

Freeze: Freeze unfrosted fritters for up to 2 months. Glaze after thawing and reheating.

Glaze tip: If making ahead, store glaze separately and drizzle when ready to serve.

FAQs

Can I use frozen blueberries?
Fresh is best for frying, but frozen can work if thawed and drained well.

Do I need a thermometer for frying?
It’s highly recommended. Keeping the oil between 340–350°F ensures golden results.

Can I bake these instead of frying?
These are designed for frying. Baking will result in a denser texture.

How do I make the glaze thicker?
Use less milk or more powdered sugar to adjust consistency.

Can I double the recipe?
Absolutely. Just fry in batches and keep the fritters warm in the oven.

Why is my batter too thick or thin?
Flour types and humidity vary. Adjust with a splash of milk or a spoonful of flour if needed.

Can I skip the glaze?
Sure—but it really takes the fritters to the next level!

Final Thoughts

These Blueberry Fritters with Vanilla Glaze are one of those feel-good recipes that hits every note—crispy, warm, fruity, and sweet.

Whether you serve them for brunch, dessert, or a weekend treat, they’re guaranteed to disappear fast.

Make a batch, brew a fresh cup of coffee, and enjoy a moment of joy with each bite.
