BLUEBERRY FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE WITH WHIPPED CREAM AND STRAWBERRIES

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 9h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus extra for buttering the dish
One 1-pound day-old loaf challah or white bread, unsliced
Two 6-ounce containers blueberries (about 2 1/4 cups)
6 large eggs
3 cups milk
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
One 16-ounce container strawberries, sliced
One 6-ounce container raspberries
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting, optional

Steps:

  • Grease the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter. Slice the bread into 3/4-to-1-inch-thick slices. If your bread is very fresh, lightly toast the slices before assembling. Tile all the bread in the dish, each slice overlapping the next. Scatter the blueberries over the bread, letting some fall to the bottom of the dish. Whisk the eggs, milk, 1/2 cup cream, 2/3 cup granulated sugar, almond extract and salt in a medium bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Pour over the bread and berries and press gently to help the bread start soaking in the egg mixture. Cut the 2 tablespoons butter into small pieces and dot over the top of the casserole. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand in the refrigerator 8 hours or overnight. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove and discard the plastic wrap. Bake the casserole until golden brown and set in the center, 45 to 50 minutes, tenting with foil if the bread starts to become too dark. Let stand 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar if desired. While the casserole bakes, toss the strawberries and raspberries with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar in a medium bowl and let stand until juicy. Before serving, whip the remaining 3/4 cup cream with the remaining 1 tablespoon granulated sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form. Serve the casserole with a dollop of whipped cream and a generous spoonful of the berries with their juices.

JORDAN MARSH'S BLUEBERRY MUFFINS



Jordan Marsh's Blueberry Muffins image

This recipe came to The Times in a 1987 article by Marian Burros, "The Battle of the Blueberry Muffins." Two years prior, Ms. Burros wrote about a recipe for the muffins attributed to the Ritz-Carlton in Boston. The hotel had adapted a recipe used by Gilchrist's, once one of city's best-known department stores. After it ran, a reader wrote in to say that the best blueberry muffins in Boston were not from the Ritz-Carlton, but from the now-closed Jordan Marsh department store. She sent along the recipe, with a description of how she picks wild blueberries: standing in a pond in the August heat and plucking berries from bushes along the bank. This version has a lot more sugar and butter and fewer eggs than the Ritz-Carlton muffins. The recipe also calls for mashing a half cup of berries and adding them to the batter. This produces a very moist muffin, one that will stay fresh longer.

Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup softened butter
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup milk
2 cups blueberries, washed, drained and picked over
3 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375.
  • Cream the butter and 1 1/4 cups sugar until light.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla.
  • Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder, and add to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk.
  • Crush 1/2 cup blueberries with a fork, and mix into the batter. Fold in the remaining whole berries.
  • Line a 12 cup standard muffin tin with cupcake liners, and fill with batter. Sprinkle the 3 teaspoons sugar over the tops of the muffins, and bake at 375 degrees for about 30-35 minutes.
  • Remove muffins from tin and cool at least 30 minutes. Store, uncovered, or the muffins will be too moist the second day, if they last that long.
