Add the blueberries and coconut and pulse just until incorporated.
Scrape the mixture into a large bowl and stir well. Form the mixture into 12 bars or rounds, 3/4 inch thick, and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet 1 inch apart.
Bake for 25 minutes, until the bars are browned around the edges.
Let the bars cool completely on the baking sheet before serving.
