Berry Cream Pie

Sun, 11 Jan 2009 18:22:01 -0500

This recipe was featured in an email today from Gooseberry Patch. "I love berries and cream together, and this recipe from Summer in the Country cookbook calls for either blueberries or raspberries. You could easily substitute strawberries, blackberries, or create your own delicious mix of berries too! - Jo Ann" -- posted by senseicheryl

The Queen of Hearts - Valentine's Jam Tarts

Sun, 11 Jan 2009 21:41:53 -0500

Jam tarts are a quintessential British teatime treat - little crispy short crust pastry rounds filled with assorted fruit jams, such as strawberry, raspberry, apricot, blackcurrant and lemon curd. They were the first things my mum taught me to bake when I was little, and in turn, I taught my daughter how to make them when she was very small. Here I have suggested that as a Valentine's Day treat, you top the jam tarts with a little pastry heart........after all, the way to a loved one's heart is through their stomach! Jam Tarts normally do NOT have any pastry topping however, so for the rest of the year, just make them as posted with no pastry lid, or use other suitable shapes appropriate for a special event. I have posted homemade short crust pastry, it is so easy to make and is far superior to ready-made, although I DO use ready-made when I am short of time! Try to use good quality or homemade jams and jellies, the higher the fruit content, the less the jam or jelly will bubble out of the pastry case. These are essential for any English Tea Party, especially if Alice in Wonderland has been invited............along with the white rabbit! Have fun! -- posted by French Tart

Crostata Di Noci E Mirtilli Rossi: Cranberry Walnut Tart

Sun, 22 Feb 2009 16:34:26 -0500

This recipe comes from the 1998 Recipes of the Five Brothers: Volume I cookbook by Lipton. My mother made this once, and it was delicious. It is, however, very tart - so add more sugar to the cranberry filling if tart is not your thing. The recipe is for both the dough and the filling, and prep time includes 1 hour chill time. -- posted by SeaChelle

Summer Memories: Jumbleberry Crumble With Shortbread Topping

Sun, 08 Mar 2009 17:32:50 -0400

This was a quick throw it together Sunday Lunch pudding idea - raid the freezer for all the nearly used bags of frozen summer fruits, such as cherries, raspberries, blackcurrants, redcurrants, bilberries (blueberries), blackberries and strawberries. Fling them all into an ovenproof gratin dish; whizz up a shortbread crumble topping - and Bob's your uncle and Fanny's your aunt, as we say down our way!!!! We loved it, the combination of fruits was wonderful - and it is a great idea for using up whatever fruits you have lurking in your freezer. I am sure that fresh fruit would also be suitable. We like our fruits to be on the tart side - so pleased add sugar to taste! Serve the crumble with hot custard, cold custard, cream, ice cream, crème fraiche or whatever you fancy! -- posted by French Tart

Florida Fresh Blueberry Pie

Wed, 11 Mar 2009 01:55:24 -0400

I got this recipe years ago from my grandmother who got it from a Florida Farm Bulletin. It came in handy for all the blueberries my granddaddy grew lovingly for us. I love it because it utilizes both cooked and raw blueberries. My dad likes to tell people that I got a marriage proposal for this pie at my first job out of college!

Stir Fried Apples & Cranberries

Fri, 27 Mar 2009 01:11:24 -0400

I am soooo having a blast with making up new recipes. I just made an awesome one this afternoon. I used Arrowroot in this. You can find it in the natural section most likely and it works like cornstarch as a thickener but healthier for you than cornstarch. I am going to try making a pie with this mixture and give it a pecan pie shell with crushed pecans that have been browned in butter and cinnamon. I think it will come out nice. -- posted by RawwGurl

Strawberry Margarita Freeze

Sun, 29 Mar 2009 20:29:50 -0400

I love strawberries and this simple dessert really gets you in the mood for spring. It's very fresh and creamy. I didn't have orange juice but I had oranges so I made fresh squeezed (YUMMY). I also used real whipped cream instead of whipped topping. I found the recipe on Kraftfoods.com. Delicious! Cook time excludes chilling time. -- posted by AmyZoe

Tantalizing Raspberry Tarts

Sun, 29 Mar 2009 20:35:43 -0400

Another recipe from "The Anne of Green Gables Cookbook": "The little girls of Avonlea school always pooled their lunches, and to eat three raspberry tarts all alone or even to share them only with one's best chum would have forever and ever branded as "awful mean" the girl who did it. And yet, when the tarts were divided among ten girls you just got enough to tantalize you. " (from "Anne of Green Gables" by L.M. Montgomery). Times are estimated and do not include cooling time beyond the initial 15 minutes (included in cooking time). The original recipe did not specify the size of package of frozen berries, so I guessed a 10 oz package based on the fresh raspberry substitution. -- posted by Halcyon Eve

Refrigerated sugar cookie dough,makes the crust for this cream cheese tart.

White chocolate and fresh raspberries make up this impressive tart, garnished with white chocolate leaves and more fresh berries.

Strawberry-Rhubarb Deep-Dish Pie

Sat, 06 Jun 2009 01:55:32 -0400

Yaay! It's strawberry season right now here in California, time to make my favorite pie. Want to post this for safekeeping here as I just had a scare and couldn't find my cookbook - this is not a recipe I want to lose! Got it from Good Housekeeping Book of Desserts, which is one of the best cookbooks on sweets that I have ever found! I have been making this pie for years now, and it's one of the few things that my incredibly over-picky kids will eat. Does take a bit of time and effort, between making the crust and sweetening/juicing up the berries, then baking and letting it cool for a bit. You can vary the top crust, I like the "criss-cross" lattice look for this one with the juicy red berries oozing on top. GREAT tasting on its own, but, if you add fresh whip cream and/or ice cream on top when it's still just a little warm, it is fantastic! -- posted by SpchTeachCooks

Cheese Tart With Strawberry-Orange Compote

Mon, 08 Jun 2009 12:43:13 -0400

Tourteau Fromage a la Compote de Fraises et Oranges. This dessert is from the Vendee and Poitou regions in France. Traditionally it is made with fresh goat's milk cheese, but a mixture of ricotta and cream cheese is the perfect substitute in this recipe. The fruit compote is a nice accompaniment. Published in Bon Appetit, May 1994. -- posted by swissms

Johnny Jalapeno's Cast-Iron Blueberry Pie

Thu, 18 Jun 2009 16:21:44 -0400

Cooking in a cast iron skillet is the true cowboy way and no one knows about cowboy cooking more than the famous outlaw, 'Johnny Jalapeno'! Legend tells that Johnny went all out with this pie. Eyeing a delicious looking patch of wild blueberries, he crept up to it injun style (real low and quiet) and got the best berries he could gather up. But soon the chase was on as Johnny Jalapeno heard the crows coming! Quick as lightning, and running like the wind, poor Johnny was being chased and pecked all the way to back to the campsite. The McDaniel gang had a hootin-hollerin' time shootin them birds away as Johnny made this dessert for the clan. "We gotta look after the best cook in the west boys!" Shouted Ricky Mac, the gangs leader. May we also suggest Recipe #377801 -- posted by 2Bleu

Glazed Fresh Berry Pie

Sat, 04 Jul 2009 14:19:30 -0400

This is an absolutely scrumptious pie, based on one originally published in The Vancouver Sun. With its fresh summer berries piled high in a baked pie shell and a glaze poured over top, it makes a nice change from traditional pies, where the fruit is cooked. It makes a wonderful summer dessert with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream on top. (I am from Canada, but for you Americans, it would make a wonderful 4th of July dessert (strawberries, blueberries AND whipped cream) (smiles). The original recipe in The Sun called for fresh raspberries (2 cups for the glaze and 6 cups for the filling), and it's wonderful with that too, but raspberry season is very short, and this strawberry/blueberry filling is wonderful too. I have yet to try it with blackberries, but might do that this summer too .... -- posted by JacquelynLee

This is a family favorite. I found the recipe in the Pillsbury Classic Cookbooks, November 1992 #141. I've been making it ever since. When you roll out the crust for the lattice top it does break so don't try to weave like a traditional lattice.

Garden Huckleberry Pie

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 12:30:47 -0400

The garden huckleberry (Solanum melanocerasum) is not a true relative of the wild huckleberry or blueberry, but is instead a member of the same plant family as potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants and peppers. Like other nightshade relatives, the garden huckleberry's foliage should never be eaten. The fully ripe berries, however, are not only edible, but also incredibly delectable. And they're easy to harvest -- no thorns to battle as in picking wild berries. Serve this luscious pie with whipped cream or ice cream. Posted in response to a recipe request. -- posted by Molly53

In the terrific version here, Grace Parisi folds in fresh berries to create a wonderful summer dessert thats also great for breakfast." Recipe from Food & Wine July 2009. -- posted by JanuaryBride

The Best Blueberry Pie

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 16:54:41 -0500

From America's Test Kitchen: "This recipe was developed using fresh blueberries, but unthawed frozen blueberries (our favorite brands are Wymans and Cascadian Farm) will work as well. If using frozen berries, in steps 16 & 17, cook half the frozen berries over medium-high heat, without mashing, until reduced to 1 1/4 cups, 12 to 15 minutes. Grind the tapioca to a powder in a spice grinder or mini food processor. If using pearl tapioca, reduce the amount to 5 teaspoons. Vodka is essential to the texture of the crust and imparts no flavor; do not substitute." Cook time includes chill times. -- posted by Pismo

This pie is made every year by my sister-in-law (a fabulous cook!). It is possible she got this recipe from somewhere else, but I don't know where. But it's so good, I wanted to make sure it was captured properly. (And this way I don't have to keep track of the paper copy.) -- posted by LibraryMan

Creamy white chocolate cheesecake with a graham cracker crust and topped with fresh berries (we use blueberries and sliced strawberries). We typically use a pre-made graham cracker crust but would be delicious with a homemade one, too! -- posted by Chef #631739

Famous Fresh Blueberry Pie

Thu, 31 Dec 2009 02:47:59 -0500

I live in Florida and it is difficult to make a non-runny blueberry pie due to the humidity, but this recipe is perfect. I got this recipe through trial and error of 5 different published recipes. The filling is dense enough so that little loose liquid is present, but you still feel like you are biting into whole berries when you eat it. This fixed my problem of getting a pool of liquid in the bottom of my pie shell. I recommend using only fresh blueberries. Use a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Regarding the crust, the store-bought frozen crusts did not work properly for me. They either didn't bake on the bottom or resulted in an overflow of pie liquid into the bottom of my oven. I recommend the Pillsbury brand rolled pie crust dough found in the refrigerator section of the grocery store (by the biscuits/crescent rolls). These bake nicely, are easy to work with, and have an appropriate amount of moisture. Of greatest inspiration for the filling was from http://www.pickyourown.org/blueberrypie.php -- posted by MerryD

Fruit Pizza

Very appealing to the eye and even better; easy to make and fun to eat. A great way to celebrate fruit so have fun and mix and match. You can even have fun with the "crust," try using sugar cookie or even choc chip cookie dough instead of the pizza pie crust. No matter how you personalized this recipe it's sure to put a smile on everyones face! -- posted by Chef #1544785
