Blueberry Lemon Ricotta Bruschetta image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 16m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pint fresh blueberries
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 cups whole-milk ricotta
1/4 cup heavy cream
Zest of 1 lemon plus juice of 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 small loaf French bread, sliced into twelve 1/2-inch-thick rounds
1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter, softened
12 fresh basil leaves
Balsamic glaze (store-bought), for drizzling
1 lemon

Steps:

  • For the blueberries: Macerate the blueberries by mixing them together with the sugar and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl. Set aside while you make the ricotta mix and the bruschetta.
  • For the lemon ricotta: Add the ricotta, heavy cream, lemon zest and juice, salt and pepper to the bowl of a food processor. Mix until the ricotta is smooth and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • For the crostini: Heat a griddle (or large cast-iron skillet) over medium-high heat. Spread each side of the sliced bread with some butter. Toast the bread on both sides until crisp and golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Allow the bread to cool slightly.
  • For serving: To assemble, smear a heaping tablespoon of the lemon-ricotta mixture onto a piece of toasted bread. Top with a tablespoon of the macerated blueberries and garnish with a basil leaf. Transfer the bruschetta to a platter and drizzle with the balsamic glaze. Zest the lemon over the platter before serving.

A slice of this berry-dotted cake is perfect late in the morning, for afternoon tea or after dinner, with coffee. It keeps for up to three days in a sealed container, but is at its absolute best on the day it's made.

Categories     brunch, snack, cakes, dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup (1 stick) plus 3 tablespoons/150 grams unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus extra for greasing the pan
1 scant cup/190 grams granulated or superfine sugar (caster sugar)
1 teaspoon lemon zest, plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice (or more juice as needed)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (vanilla essence)
3 large eggs, beaten
2/3 cup/90 grams all-purpose flour (plain flour), sifted
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup/110 grams almond flour (ground almonds)
1 1/2 cups/200 grams fresh blueberries
2/3 cup/70 grams confectioners' sugar (icing sugar)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit/200 degrees Celsius. Grease a 9- or 8-inch/21-centimeter loaf pan with butter, line it with a parchment paper sling and butter the paper. Set the pan aside.
  • Place butter, sugar, lemon zest and vanilla extract in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on high speed for 3 to 4 minutes, until light, then lower speed to medium. Add eggs in three additions, scraping down the sides of the bowl a few times as necessary. The mix may split a little but don't worry: It'll come back together once you add the dry ingredients.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and almond flour. With the stand mixer on low, add the dry ingredients in three additions, mixing just until no white specks remain. Fold in about 3/4 of the blueberries by hand, then scoop batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, then sprinkle the remaining blueberries over the top of the cake. Return to the oven for another 15 to 20 minutes, until cake is golden brown but still uncooked. Cover loosely with foil and continue to cook for another 25 to 30 minutes (less for a 9-inch pan, more for an 8-inch pan), or until risen and cooked, and a knife inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. Remove from oven and set aside in its pan to cool for 10 minutes before removing cake from pan and placing on a wire rack to cool completely.
  • When cake is cool, make the icing: Add lemon juice and icing sugar to a bowl and whisk together until smooth, adding a bit more juice if necessary, just until the icing moves when you tilt the bowl. Pour over the cake and gently spread out. The blueberries on the top of the cake may bleed into the icing a little, but this will add to the look. Let icing set (about 30 minutes), slice and serve.

Great breakfast to feed a group and loaded with protein and whole grains! Make ahead the night before, then pop in the oven before everyone gets up.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, sweet blueberries for the best flavor.
  • Toast the almonds in a single layer in a preheated oven for a few minutes, until they are fragrant and golden brown.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar for the glaze. A thick, syrupy vinegar will coat the blueberries and almonds better.
  • If you don't have balsamic vinegar, you can use a mixture of honey and lemon juice instead.
  • Serve the bruschetta immediately after it is made, while the bread is still warm and crispy.

Conclusion:

Blueberry almond bruschetta is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for parties or potlucks, and it's also a great way to use up leftover blueberries. The combination of sweet blueberries, crunchy almonds, and tangy balsamic vinegar is sure to please everyone.
