2 pounds fresh blueberries
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
BATTER:
1 1/4 cups milk
2 tablespoons sour cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 extra-large eggs
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
FILLING:
24 ounces or 3 cups ricotta cheese
8 ounces mascarpone cheese
2 extra-large eggs
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest from about 2 lemons
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the Blueberry sauce: Combine the orange juice, sugar, and cornstarch in a medium saucepan and boil, stirring occasionally, until translucent and thickened. Stir in the blueberries and simmer 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the zest and lemon juice and cool. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan. For the pancake batter: Place all the ingredients of the batter in the bowl of a food processor with a steel blade or blender (or a whisk, ) and blend until smooth. Pour half the batter into the dish and bake 10 minutes, or until set. For the filling: Whisk all the ingredients together in a large bowl until thoroughly combined. Spread over the baked layer Next, carefully spoon the remaining pancake batter over the cheese layer. Return to the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is light golden and the filling is set. Remove from the oven and let stand 10 to 15 minutes. Cut into squares and serve with blueberry sauce. NOTE: This makes a lot! You can cut this recipe in half. The night before, I made the pancake batter, but waited to add the baking powder right before making this. I also made the filling and the blueberry sauce the night before. This assembled beautifully, and baked perfectly. Warm the blueberry sauce, but don't boil it.

This is a Barefoot Contessa recipe which sounds wonderful because you bake the blintzes in a large casserole and then cut into squares vs. having to make individual pancakes. They are topped with a wonderful fresh blueberry topping. Would be wonderful for a brunch!!!

Time 1h20m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 1/4 cups milk
2 tablespoons sour cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 extra-large eggs
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 (24 ounce) carton ricotta cheese
8 ounces mascarpone cheese
2 extra-large eggs
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon zest (zest of 2 lemons)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup orange juice, freshly squeezed (3 oranges)
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
4 half-pints fresh blueberries
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9 x 13 inch cake pan or baking dish.
  • For the batter: place all the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and blend until smooth. Pour half of the batter (about 1 3/4 cups) into the prepared dish and bake for 10 minutes, until set.
  • Meanwhile, for the filling, whisk together the ricotta, mascarpone, eggs, and sugar in a large bowl. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt and mix until thoroughly combined. Spread the cheese filling over the baked pancake. Carefully spoon the remaining pancake batter to cover the cheese (use a measuring cup and pour batter into a spoon over the dish -- this will prevent the pancake batter from mixing in with the filling). Return the dish to the oven and continue baking 35-40 minutes, until the top is liqhtly golden and the filling is almost set. Remove from the oven and allow to stand 10-15 minutes. Cut the blintzes in squares and serve warm with the fresh blueberry sauce.
  • Blueberry Sauce: Combine the orange juice, sugar and cornstarch in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. When the mixture is translucent and thickened, stir in the blueberries and simmer for 4-5 minutes, just until a few berries have burst but most are still whole. Stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice and cool. Makes 2 cups.

FRESH BLUEBERRY SAUCE



FRESH BLUEBERRY SAUCE image

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Fruit     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 5

1-1/2 Tbl cornstarch
2 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 cup Splenda
1/3 cup water
1-1/2 oz. Chambord liquer

Steps:

  • Mix water, cornstarch, and Splenda on low heat until all are dissolved. Increase heat to medium high, continously stirring, add blueberries until solution begins to thicken, add Chambord and continue stirring for one minute. Remove from heat and serve, cool or warm.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and sweet blueberries: This will ensure that your sauce has the best flavor. Look for berries that are plump and have a deep blue color. Avoid berries that are wrinkled or have any signs of bruising.
  • Use fresh lemon juice: Fresh lemon juice will brighten up the flavor of your sauce and prevent it from tasting too sweet. If you don't have fresh lemon juice on hand, you can use bottled lemon juice, but be sure to dilute it with a little water.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: Blueberry sauce should be cooked until it is slightly thickened and the berries have softened, but it should not be cooked until the berries are mushy. Overcooked sauce will lose its vibrant color and flavor.
  • Serve the sauce warm or cold: Blueberry sauce can be served warm or cold, depending on your preference. If you are serving it warm, you can reheat it gently over low heat until it is warmed through. If you are serving it cold, you can chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Use blueberry sauce as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or ice cream: Blueberry sauce is a delicious topping for a variety of desserts. It can also be used as a filling for pies and tarts.

Conclusion:

Blueberry sauce is a versatile and delicious sauce that can be used in a variety of ways. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it sweet, tart, or somewhere in between, there is a blueberry sauce recipe out there for you. So next time you have a craving for something sweet and fruity, give blueberry sauce a try.
