OVEN-BAKED FRENCH TOAST WITH MIXED BERRY SAUCE
As meals go, breakfast typically is the least expensive of the day. Eggs, bread and milk are relatively cheap and with the right recipe can become more than the usual omelettes and toast. Oven-baked French toast with mixed berry sauce is inexpensive to prepare and is impressive enough for company, yet simple enough to make for a Sunday brunch with family. The easy-to-make-sauce uses inexpensive frozen mixed berries, but the recipe is flexible. An equal amount of any frozen berries can be substituted. The sauce will keep, in an airtight container, for up to a week.

MIXED BERRY SAUCE
This is a wonderful sauce to serve over cheesecake, pound cake or even vanilla ice cream. If you don't like mixed berries you can use the individual berries of your choice. If prefer a more tart sauce reduce sugar to 1/2 cup.

CREPES WITH MIXED BERRY SAUCE
Steps:
- Put the frozen berries, sugar, water, and vanilla into a small pot and simmer on medium heat until all of the berries break down and melt together into a sauce-like consistency. This will take about 15-20 minutes. Mix all of the dry and wet ingredients for the crepes together with a wisk until well blended and smooth. Heat a medium-sized pan to medium heat and cover the pan lightly with butter or vegetable oil. Once heated, spoon out the batter into the pan. Spread the batter out so each crepe is about palm-size and circular. Once the crepe looks lighter in color and dry/cooked, flip the crepes and do the same on the other side. You can cook until a little bit browned too, depending on what consistency you prefer. Once you finish cooking the crepes, plate them and spoon the berry mixture over each crepe and serve. You can dust with powdered sugar as well.

MIXED BERRY SAUCE TO BE ENJOYED WITH MEAT
This is a sauce that my family and I enjoy eating with red meat, game or in particular, duck. It was a bit of an experiment but turned out great. The sauce itself takes only 10 minutes to make but it requires the juices from the meat so you have to cook your meat first. PLEASE NOTE: time cooking the meat will vary from meat to meat and person to person so I have not included this in cooking times, I have only included the timing of the actual sauce itself. As it is a fruity sauce do not expect it to be thick and creamy, it is quite fluid but its the flavour that we love. It is both sweet and savory atthe same time as the fruit and the meat juices used are a complete contrast to each other.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe berries: Fresh berries will have a better flavor and texture than frozen or canned berries. If you can, pick your own berries or buy them from a local farmer's market.
- Use a variety of berries: Different berries have different flavors and textures, so using a variety will give your sauce a more complex flavor. Some good combinations include strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and boysenberries.
- Sweeten the sauce to taste: The amount of sugar you add to the sauce will depend on the sweetness of the berries you are using. Start with a small amount of sugar and add more to taste.
- Add a little lemon juice: Lemon juice can help to brighten the flavor of the sauce. Add a tablespoon or two to taste.
- Cook the sauce until it thickens: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. If it is too thin, cook it for a few minutes longer.
- Serve the sauce warm or cold: Mixed berry sauce can be served warm or cold. It is delicious on pancakes, waffles, French toast, ice cream, or yogurt.
Conclusion:
Mixed berry sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of ways. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you have a bunch of fresh berries, give this recipe a try.
