Puff Pastry Blueberry Cobbler Food

OLD-FASHIONED BLUEBERRY COBBLER RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a deep-dish (9-inch) pie plate.

EASY BLUEBERRY TART RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375° F. On a parchment-lined baking sheet or Silpat mat, unfold the sheet of pastry and smooth it out.
• Using the tip of a knife, score a 1-inch border around the pastry without cutting all the way through the dough. Brush just the border with beaten egg and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.
• Bake until golden and puffed, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Re-score the border of the baked pastry with your knife without cutting all the way through. Gently press the center of the pastry sheet down to flatten it. Let cool to room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While pastry bakes, beat the cream cheese, cream, lemon zest, and 2 tablespoons of the powdered sugar, and vanilla with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly in the center of the pastry.
• Place blueberries over the filling and dust with the remaining tablespoon of powdered sugar. Serve immediately.

BLUEBERRY HAND PIES

Steps:

• For the filling: Combine the blueberries and granulated sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and cook, stirring, until the sugar is melted and the berries have started to burst, a few minutes. Stir together the cornstarch and lemon juice in a small bowl until combined, then add to the blueberry mixture. Add the lemon zest and vanilla and continue to cook until glossy and thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the pastry: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• To make the pies, unfold the thawed pastry and roll out to 10-inch squares if necessary. Cut each square in quarters, making four 5-inch squares from each. Spoon 1 1/2 tablespoons of cooled filling onto one corner of each square. Brush around the squares with the egg wash. Fold the pasty over the filling on each to make a triangle, pressing lightly to remove any air pockets. Crimp the edges shut with a fork. Put the pies on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the tops of the pies with the egg wash. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack set over a baking sheet.
• For the glaze: Mix the powdered sugar, vanilla and 1/3 cup cold water in a bowl until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the pies and let set until dry.

MIXED BERRY COBBLER

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400°F.
• Sprinkle the work surface with 2 tablespoons sugar. Unfold the pastry sheet onto the sugar. Roll the pastry sheet into a 10 x 9-inch rectangle. Cut into 8 (4 1/2x2 1/2-inch) rectangles.
• Stir the cornstarch and water in a small bowl until smooth. Heat the berries, lemon zest and remaining sugar in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat to a boil. Stir in the cornstarch mixture. Cook and stir for 5 minutes or until mixture boils and thickens. Spoon the berry mixture into a 3-quart shallow baking dish. Top the berry mixture with the pastry rectangles, sugar-side up, but not touching.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until pastry is golden brown. Let the cobbler cool in the baking dish on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Serve with the ice cream.

BLUEBERRY COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Pulse flour, baking powder, and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter, and process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Transfer mixture to a large bowl, and add heavy cream in a slow, steady stream, mixing with a wooden spoon until dough just comes together. Divide dough into 9 pieces, and loosely form each into a ball and flatten slightly. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon; toss gently to coat. Transfer mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish. Top blueberry mixture with dough balls, spacing evenly. Brush dough with heavy cream, and sprinkle with sanding sugar. Bake until berries are bubbling in center and biscuits are golden brown, about 55 minutes. Transfer dish to a wire rack, and let cool slightly, about 30 minutes.

CAST-IRON BLUEBERRY AND NECTARINE GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to a 1/4-inch-thick square.
• Transfer to a 9-inch cast-iron skillet, gently pressing it into the skillet and allowing the extra to hang over the edges.
• Place the blueberries, nectarines, sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice in a bowl. Toss to combine and add the mixture to the prepared skillet.
• Mix the egg with 1 tablespoon water in a bowl and brush the visible pastry with the egg wash.
• Bake until the pastry is golden and the fruit is bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Serve warm with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.

PUFF PASTRY BLUEBERRY COBBLER RECIPE

Steps:

• Preparation: 1. Thaw pastry according to package directions - 30 to 40 minutes. Once thawed, place a 1 quart casserole or baking dish on it and cut the pastry to fit. 2. Heat oven to 400 degrees. 3. If using fresh berries, pick through them discarding any red ones and checking for stems. 4. Mix together remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and pour into casserole. Spread evenly and ad pieces of butter on top. 5. Place the puff pastry on top and gently press down. Cut 4 slits in the top. 6. Bake in center of oven until pastry is puffed and golden and fruit is bubbling around edges - 40 to 50 minutes. *Note: I've never seen tapioca starch, so I buy instant tapioca and grind it in the electric coffee grinder I use for spices. It you don't grind it you end up with little tapioca balls in the mixture and I don't like them.

PUFF PASTRY

Steps:

• Put the flour and a pinch of salt in the food processor. Turn it on and steadily pour in 150ml of water. When the dough comes together, cover it in cling film and chill for 20 mins.
• Lightly flour your surface and roll the dough into a 25cm circle. Put the butter in between two pieces of baking parchment and soften it by tapping it with a rolling pin. Cut the butter in half and repeat the process until the butter is pliable but still cold. Reshape to the size roughly of a postcard.
• Put the butter in the centre of the pastry and fold over the right and left sides of the circle, overlapping in the middle. Press the dough with your rolling pin to make it longer and then lightly mark into thirds. Fold the bottom third up to cover the middle third and the top third down. Seal the dough gently by pressing down on the edges with your rolling pin. Give the dough a quarter turn.
• Roll the dough out to a long rectangle (roughly 18 x 38cm), keeping the edges square and the sides straight. Mark the dough into thirds again, fold the bottom third up and the top third down. Seal the edges and give the dough a quarter turn. Repeat one more time, cover and chill for 20 mins.
• Repeat step four twice more, chilling each time. Chill for one hour before using. Watch our puff pastry video for a Good Food tutorial.
