CAJUN SWEET DOUGH



Cajun Sweet Dough image

Down in Louisiana this dough is used to make what we call Cajun Sweet Dough. The traditional filling is fig and it is made into turnovers, but it can also be used as pie crust, although it is not as flaky. It is supreme as turnover dough, for ANY kind of filling.

Provided by Julie P.

Time 15m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 ⅓ cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup milk
1 (12.5 ounce) can cherry pie filling
1 egg white (for egg wash)

Steps:

  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the butter, then add the sugar a little at a time. Add the vanilla. Beat the mixture until it is nice and fluffy. Beat in the egg. Stir in the flour mixture alternately with the milk.
  • Before you use this dough, be sure you chill it well at least 2 hours or even overnight.
  • To make turnovers: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roll dough out to 1/4 inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 3 inch squares. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the pie filling into the center of each square and fold over to form a triangle. Pinch the seams to seal or press with the tines of a fork. Place at least 2 inches apart on a greased baking sheet. Brush with egg white.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown on the tops and bottom.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe figs for the best flavor.
  • If you can't find fresh figs, you can substitute dried figs. Be sure to soak them in warm water for 30 minutes before using.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to make the cobbler filling. This will help prevent the filling from sticking.
  • Bring the filling to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the figs are soft and the filling has thickened.
  • Use a biscuit mix or your favorite pie crust recipe to make the cobbler topping.
  • Drop the biscuit dough or pie crust topping onto the hot filling. You can also use a pastry cutter to cut the dough into strips and then weave them over the filling.
  • Bake the cobbler for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Cajun fig cobbler is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and tart flavors of the figs are perfectly complemented by the spicy and savory flavors of the Cajun spices. This cobbler is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
