Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Make Blueberry Jam: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and water. Stir until berries burst and sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Mix in cornstarch slurry and cool.
  2. Brown Butter: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until golden brown, about 5-8 minutes. Transfer to a glass bowl to cool.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: Combine cooled browned butter with granulated and brown sugar in a stand mixer. Beat until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add eggs and vanilla to the mixture, beating until well combined, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add to the wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the prepared blueberry jam and additional blueberries.
  7. Scoop and Chill Dough: Portion dough on a lined baking sheet, make wells for blueberry jam, cover, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Prepare Streusel: Mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Cut in cold butter until crumbly.
  9. Bake Cookies: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C), place chilled dough on baking sheets, sprinkle with streusel, and bake for 15 minutes.
