Oh these buns!!
These buns, these buns, these buns. I love umm.
They are better than your average sticky bun with pecans. They are more than just sugar. They have flavor. They have blueberries!!!
And vanilla and lemon and vanilla.
AND a cream cheese layer that makes them a little cheesecake like, but they are better than cheesecake, because they are warm, gooey and melty. Yummmm.
I actually got so excited as I was making these that I completely spaced and took no pretty pictures of the goo. The goo is what makes these sticky buns amazing. The blueberries and vanilla make the goo pure magical. Seriously, you could turn any type of breakfasty dish – pancakes, waffles, crepes and pretty much any bread, into a breakfast to remember.
I have to admit, I was a little unsure of the cream cheese layer. To be honest I am not sure why I even thought to add the cream cheese, but the combo of blueberries and cream cheese just sounded right. It ended up being so good and my family loved them. Actually, they never really said anything about the cream cheese specifically, they just loved these buns. I did make the cream cheese optional though, just in case cream cheese may not be your thing. It’s up to you.
Originally, I was thinking of these for Father’s Day since my dad loves a good sticky bun, but they turned out so good that I think I need to make them every week for the rest of the summer. You know kind of the gift that keeps on giving!
I am sure you could swap in any fruit you happen to have on hand. Blackberries would be equally as delicious, but I feel like any other berry would probably change the flavors a bit. Especially with the cream cheese.
These are pretty simple to make, and of course that’s always a good thing.
Oh, and since it is Tuesday, and it’s summer, I feel like a fancy breakfast is totally acceptable. I mean, everything goes in the summer, right?

I would say so. Summer livin’ rules!
Is there an overnight version of this? I would love to make this for breakfast but don’t want to get up 3hrs early to make them.
Hey Hilary,
You can keep them in the fridge overnight. I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions. Happy Thanksgiving! xTieghan
Some clarifications – is it 4 tablespoons sugar total or 1/2 cup total. Says different things. And Is it one cup or one stick of butter?
Hi Sarah! It’s 4 tablespoons sugar and 1 stick butter. Recipe all fixed! Please let me know if you have any other questions. I hope you love this recipe! Thank you!! xTieghan
My husband said these were one of the best baked goods I have ever made and I am a pretty competent baker! So delicious. Used the cream cheese and certainly would again.
Thank you!
Thank you Liesl! xTieghan
Hey Tieghan! I wanted to let you know that I adapted these a bit and made them and they are pretty much the best thing ever! I post about them on my blog as a birthday celebration and it would be awesome if you stopped by! http://piesandplots.net/blueberry-sticky-buns-27-wishes/
