BLUEBERRY LOAF

BLUEBERRY BREAD I

Steps:

• Mix together beaten eggs with the sugar. Add milk and melted shortening or vegetable oil.
• Sift together flour, salt, and baking powder. Combine mixtures, stirring only until blended. Carefully fold in fresh or frozen blueberries and broken walnut pieces.
• Pour into greased 5 x 12 inch loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50-60 minutes. Cool in pan but try to turn it out of pan before it is totally cool. It will be easier to remove. Can also be made in a normal size loaf pan or can be made into 2 pans.

DOUBLE BERRY BARS

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
• Stir together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, melted butter and salt in a bowl. Press into an even layer in the bottom of the pan. Bake the crust until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
• For the filling: Beat the cream cheese and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment until creamy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until the yellow disappears. Add the sour cream, lemon juice and vanilla extract and beat until smooth. Pour the batter over the cooled crust. Bake until the cheesecake is firm and set, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven. Run a knife around the edges and let the cheesecake cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight.
• For the topping: Cut the cheesecake into 12 bars. Coat a straw or a chopstick with cooking spray. Press down in the center of each bar to form a space for the jam, cleaning after each use. Pipe the jams alternately into the center of each bar, then drizzle with the melted white chocolate.

DOUBLE-BERRY SUMMER PUDDINGS

Steps:

• Line six 3/4-cup custard cups or soufflé dishes with plastic wrap, overlapping sides by at least 2 inches. Using 2 1/2- to 2 3/4-inch-diameter cookie cutter, cut out 1 round from each of 12 bread slices. Place 1 bread round in bottom of each custard cup. Cut remaining 6 bread slices into 1-inch-wide strips. Line sides of custard cups with bread strips, trimming to fit and lining cups completely.
• Combine 2 1/2 cups raspberries and 2 1/2 cups blackberries, sugar, currant jelly, 1/4 cup water and lemon juice in large saucepan. Stir over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium; sim-mer until berries soften and begin to release juices, about 5 minutes (some berries will fall apart). Divide warm berry mixture among bread-lined cups, reserving 1/2 cup juices. Cover berry mixture with remaining 6 bread rounds, pressing down slightly. Pour 1/2 cup berry juices over puddings. Fold in plastic overhang. Place small plates atop puddings; weight down with cans. Chill overnight.
• Remove cans and plates. Unfold plastic wrap. Invert puddings onto plates; remove plastic. Spoon Vanilla Whipped Cream alongside. Garnish with additional berries, if desired.

DOUBLE CHERRY QUICK BREAD

Steps:

• NOTE: This makes a very, very dense batter. Do NOT make this with a hand mixer; mix it by hand so your motor does not burnt out!
• Also, the baked top of the loaves or muffins is very dark! It can "read" as being done but don't be fooled! Test doneness by inserting a wooden toothpick into the center of the muffin or loaf before removing from oven, and if it's clean of batter when removed, your bread/muffin is baked.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease giant muffin tins or small loaf pans (6" x 3"). Set aside.
• In a small bowl, blend together the beaten eggs, almond extract and melted (but cooled) butter. Set aside.
• In a large 4 quart capacity bowl, sift the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and cinnamon to make sure it's thoroughly combined. Create a "well" in the center of the dry ingredients to add the egg mixture.
• With a sturdy wooden spoon handy, add egg mixture to well in dry ingredients and fold the dry and wet ingredients together until well incorporated. Batter is very, very stiff at this stage and puts up a fight!
• Add the canned cherry pie mix and fresh sour cherries to the batter. Put your back into it and fold the cherries into the batter until it is uniformly pink in colour. Congratulations! You're almost done!
• I use a plastic one cup measuring cup to scoop the batter out and push it into the greased loaf or muffin tins with my finger. DO NOT EXCEED THE 1/2 FULL MARK OR THEY WILL OVERFLOW in the oven!
• Bake at 350 degrees until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. For large muffins the time is 30 minutes. For 6" x 3" loaves, it's 40 minutes. For large loaves, it can be from 60 to 80 minutes and you risk burning the top! (I'm just saying).
• Remove from oven when done and cool baked goods in pan on wire cooling racks for 10 minutes. If well greased, cherry bread will flip right out of the pans! These breads/muffins really retain their heat so don't attempt to eat straight away, as tempting as it seems. Allow to cool an additional 30 minutes before enjoying this cherry quick bread. :)
• Yield from this recipe: 6 large muffins and 3 small loaf pans. This strange "yield" is because I didn't have enough loaf or muffin pans to make only one type of cherry bread or muffin. LOL.

BLUEBERRY QUICK BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in walnuts. In a small bowl, beat eggs, milk and vanilla; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Gently fold in blueberries. Pour into two 9x5-in. loaf pans. Bake at 350° for 65-75 minutes or until bread tests done. Cool in pan 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.

DOUBLE-BERRY PANCAKES

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine dry ingredients.
• In another bowl, mix egg yolks, buttermilk and butter until well blended, then stir this into the flour mixture.
• In another large bowl beat the egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form, then fold into batter gently with a rubber spatula until it's worked inches
• Cook pancakes on a griddle that has been preheated on medium heat.
• Use about 1/3 cup of batter for each one.
• As soon as you pour the batter onto griddle, arrange 1 tablespoon each of the blueberries and raspberries on the top of the pancake.
• Cook until the pancake has bubbled over the surface, then carefully flip.
• Cook until the other side is lightly browned.
• Serve with syrup.
