Blueberry Perogies with Blueberry Sauce
We love perogies, they are a Canadian favourite. There is a challenge with the spelling of the word perogies as it seems it’s dependant upon where you are located as to how a person spells it. Despite the spelling, the classic perogy is usually made with a combination of cheese and potato, although other variations are found and the favourite is dependant upon preference. Even more unique are a country favourite, fruit filled perogies. These Blueberry Perogies with Blueberry Sauce are a delicious change to dessert and it’s not hard to see why.
For those of you who have never made perogies, it’s not hard just a little time consuming but your efforts will be worthwhile. The sauce can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for use on waffles, pancakes or other treats.

Thank you! Amazing taste. Fruity dessert. This is going to be on my menu at least once a week. Do you think it could be prepared with strawberries?
I’ve never made them with strawberries, plums yes. I would think strawberries may be too watery but you could try a few to see. You may have to use a pie filler like Tapioca to thicken the strawberries just a bit and then I think it would work. Good luck! 🙂
Mmmm. I love these. Thank you for posting the recipe. (But pierogi”es”, ouch, my Polish and Ukrainian ears cringe). Plural is pierogi. Singular is pieróg in Polish)
LOL, well it depends where you are from on how it’s spelled. One of our favourites here.
