BLUEBERRIES AND SOUR CREAM



Blueberries and Sour Cream image

Every day at the resort at 1:00 pm, we (the staff) would charge to the dining room to get last call for lunch. This, of course was breakfast for the band. We would stuff ourselves and invariably end the meal with an order of blueberries and sour cream, which would push it over the top.

BLUEBERRIES AND CREAM



Blueberries and Cream image

Nigella Lawson called this "the ultimate in a no-cook dessert": nothing more than Greek or whole-milk yogurt and heavy cream combined in a bowl and given a thick sprinkled covering of soft brown sugar, light or dark as you wish. It's a dish her grandmother made, calling it Barbados cream (presumably because the sugar she used came from Barbados). After combining the yogurt, cream and sugar, you wrap the bowl in plastic and put it in the fridge for 12 to 24 hours to let the sugar turn into a dark bronze liquid, slowly seeping into the cream and yogurt. It tastes like a light, uncrunched crème brûlée. When you are ready to eat it, take the cream-yogurt mixture to the table with another bowl filled with blueberries. And then sit down and feel quietly pleased with yourself: you have made a lovely summer dessert and have not so much as broken a sweat.

Provided by Nigella Lawson

Time 5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup heavy cream
1 cup Greek or other plain whole-milk yogurt
1/3 cup soft brown sugar, or as needed
2 cups blueberries

Steps:

  • The day before serving, combine the cream and yogurt in a mixing bowl, and whisk until thick but not stiff. Scrape into a shallow serving bowl about 8 inches in diameter.
  • Sprinkle with enough brown sugar to cover top of yogurt mixture. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours.
  • Remove yogurt mixture from refrigerator, and allow it to come to room temperature. Serve yogurt and berries in separate bowls, allowing guests to help themselves.

BISCUIT WAFFLES WITH LEMON CREAM, LEMON SYRUP AND BLUEBERRIES



Biscuit Waffles with Lemon Cream, Lemon Syrup and Blueberries image

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Nonstick cooking spray
Dough scraps from Trisha Yearwood's Angel Biscuits, recipe follows
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 lemons, zested
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 cup fresh blueberries, for serving
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup warm (90 to 110 degrees F) water
1/2 ounce (2 packages) active dry yeast
1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, cold, cut into small squares, plus 4 tablespoons, melted
2 cups buttermilk

Steps:

  • Spray a waffle iron with nonstick spray; heat to medium.
  • Gather the biscuit scraps into a ball, then press out as thin as possible on a lightly floured work surface; the thinner the biscuit, the fluffier the waffle will be. With a biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits, making sure they will fit into the waffle iron, width-wise.
  • When the iron is hot, add the biscuits, one per square, and close the lid. Cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and repeat.
  • Meanwhile, combine the cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl. Using an electric hand mixer, beat until smooth and well incorporated. Add the cream and lemon zest; beat until light and fluffy. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice and maple syrup. Set aside.
  • To serve, place two waffles on a plate and top with lemon cream, lemon syrup and blueberries.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 3 tablespoons of the sugar.
  • In a small bowl, combine the warm water with the yeast and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; stir until the yeast is dissolved. Let stand until bubbles appear, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Using your hands, mix the 1 cup cold butter into the flour, breaking the butter into small pebbles, until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Make a well in the center and add the buttermilk and the yeast mixture. Gently fold the flour into the wet ingredients. Keep mixing until a ball starts to form, then gently knead, 12 to 15 times, to create a smooth dough. Cover with a cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and press out to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick. Fold the dough in half, press again to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick, and then fold again. Cut the dough using a 2- to 3-inch round biscuit cutter, depending personal preference. Brush the bottom of a cast-iron skillet with some of the melted butter. Place the biscuits in the skillet; brush the tops with melted butter.
  • Bake until golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes, depending on size. Brush again with melted butter and serve immediately.

BLUEBERRIES AND CREAM CAKE



Blueberries and Cream Cake image

Attention blueberry lovers, this blueberry cake recipe is for you! Do not let all the steps scare you. It's a bit time consuming but the end product is beautiful and oh so yummy! The cake isn't overly sweet - nice and delicate. The cream cheese frosting is rich and delicious. The blueberry glaze, though, sets this over the top!

Provided by Debbie Bankston

Categories     Fruit Desserts

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 stick butter, room temperature
3/4 c sugar
1 1/2 c self-rising flour
2 eggs, room temp
1/2 c milk, slightly warmed
3 Tbsp sour cream, room temp
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 c fresh or frozen blueberries
1/8 c self-rising flour
FROSTING
6 oz cream cheese, softened
1 Tbsp butter softened
1 box powdered sugar (about 3 1/2 cups)
1 Tbsp milk
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
GLAZE
1 c blueberries, thawed if frozen
1/4 c orange juice
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/3 c sugar
1 tsp butter
1/8 c cold water
1 Tbsp corn starch, mixed well into the cold water

Steps:

  • 1. Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven. Grease and flour 2 9-inch cake pans. I have not used the flour spray with this cake, as grease and flour were recommended to me for this type of cake. I took a scratch cake mix recipe and tweaked it for my own use.
  • 2. Place 1 cup fresh or fresh frozen blueberries in a bowl and, toss with 1/8 cup flour, set aside.
  • 3. In a separate bowl, cream the butter well. Add sugar and cream until light and fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the sour cream and beat in well.
  • 4. Add the eggs, one at a time and beat each in well. Add the vanilla extract and mix in well.
  • 5. Add the flour and milk alternately, begin and end with flour.
  • 6. Fold in blueberries, just to incorporate into batter.
  • 7. Pour batter into prepared pans and bake approx 20 minutes, depending on pans used. Cake will be a light golden brown across the top and begin pulling from edge slightly... don't over bake. My blueberries tend to settle on the bottom when making a layer cake, so I immediately turn my layers onto wire cooling racks and remove pans... let cool before frosting.
  • 8. Beat the cream cheese well. Add the butter and beat in well. Begin beating in the powdered sugar about a cup at a time. When mixture gets too stiff, add milk about 1/2 tablespoon at a time. You may or may not use all the milk. You don't want your frosting too thin. Continue until all powdered sugar is mixed in well, add vanilla and mix in well.
  • 9. Once cake is cooled, carefully spread 1/2 the frosting over the bottom layer. Add top layer and spread remaining frosting over the top layer. I don't worry about completely frosting the sides, I just kinda run the spatula around the edges and smooth the top nicely.
  • 10. I begin by letting my blueberries soak in the juices and sugar. Put blueberries in juice mixture into a small boiler (I use a small non-stick boiler for this).
  • 11. Begin heating on medium heat, add the butter. Mix in well and bring mixture to a full rolling boil.
  • 12. Combine cornstarch and water in a separate bowl and mix well. Add the cornstarch mixture to the berries. Mix in well and quickly. Boil about another minute or so.
  • 13. Remove from heat. Mixture should thicken to a nice thick blueberry sauce with nice whole blueberries in it. You do not want to smash your berries up, so mix carefully.
  • 14. Let this mixture cool down. If it's too hot when you try to pour it over your cake, it will all run off. You want it to settle all over the top, with minimal run off the sides. I let mine cool at least 25 minutes until I could taste the sauce with a spoon and it not burn my mouth. Then carefully begin adding the blueberry glaze to the cake top. I used a tablespoon so I could completely get the top coated like I wanted, then I begin letting it run over the edges for a nice drizzled look.

BLUEBERRIES-AND-CREAM SLAB PIE



Blueberries-and-Cream Slab Pie image

Nothing bakes up better than a wild blueberry. While fresh wild berries are only available during a short seasonal window, frozen berries are easy to find year-round. They don't even need to be thawed before using. This generous slab pie combines wild blueberries and a decadent cream cheese filling in one big, all-butter pastry crust. The result is a pie that showcases one of my favorite fruits in an easy-to-share package.

Provided by Samantha Seneviratne

Categories     dessert

Time 3h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups (13 1/2 ounces) all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
18 tablespoons (2 1/4 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
6 to 8 tablespoons ice water
4 cups wild blueberries, frozen or fresh
3/4 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons cornstarch
Pinch kosher salt
6 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 large egg yolk
1 large egg yolk
Sanding sugar, for sprinkling (optional)

Steps:

  • For the pastry: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour mixture until you have something that resembles coarse meal with a few larger pea-sized pieces of butter. Add 6 tablespoons ice water and stir with a fork. If you can squeeze the mixture together in your hands, you have added enough water; if not, add a little more. The dough will look shaggy. Knead the dough with your hands a couple times in the bowl to get it to start to come together. Tip the dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap. Use the edges of the plastic wrap to help gather the dough and form it into a flat rectangle. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • For the fillings: In a large saucepan, combine the blueberries, 1/2 cup of the sugar, 3 tablespoons of the cornstarch and the salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries have released some juice and the sauce is thick, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, lemon zest and the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1/4 cup sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg yolk. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the egg wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk with 1 tablespoon water.
  • On a lightly floured piece of parchment, roll the dough out into a rectangle about 12 by 14 inches. Trim the ragged edges. (Pop the dough in the fridge to chill if it has gotten too soft.) Spread the cream cheese filling on the right half of the dough rectangle, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border around the edges. Top with the cooled blueberry filling. Brush the border with the egg wash. Use the parchment to lift the left half of the dough over the filling. Use a fork to seal the edges. Using the parchment, transfer the pie to a baking sheet. Brush the top with more egg wash and sprinkle with the sanding sugar if using. Use a small paring knife to cut a few small slits in the top to vent the pie. Bake until golden brown and set, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool before slicing.

BLUEBERRIES AND CREAM PIE



Blueberries and cream pie image

This pie goes like water in my house. We have tried all different types fruit!

Provided by Jennifer Segreti

Categories     Pies

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 c graham crackers, crushed
4 Tbsp butter, melted
1 pt blueberries
1/4 c water
1/4 c sugar
1 c heavy cream
1 pkg cream cheese, room temperature
2/3 c sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350. In a small bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs and butter until crumbly. Press mixture into your favorite pie dish, make sure to keep it even and cover the sides well. Bake for 10 minutes, and set aside to cool completely.
  • 2. To make the syrup, put the blueberries, sugar and water in a pot, and bring to a boil, turn down the heat slightly, and allow to simmer for 5 to 7 minutes. (Nigella Lawson says "never stir a sugar syrup while its on the heat, that's how crystals form" So swirl the pot several times while its simmering to mix. Take it off the heat and allow to cool.
  • 3. In a medium bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Set aside. In another bowl, or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla together until smooth. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in a few small batches. Spread the cream mixture in the cooled crust and allow to set in the fridge for a few hours to firm up. Slice and serve with blueberry syrup, pass out seconds, and thank me later.
  • 4. ** Variations: If you make a deep dish pie, you can use 2 blocks of cream cheese for a denser pie, or 1 1/2 cups heavy cream for a lighter pie. Instead of blueberry syrup, add fresh strawberries or peaches to the top!**
