Blueberry Or Raspberry Butter Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat all ingredients until well blended and smooth. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator; bring to room temperature before serving.

Steps:

• Wash the berries and let them dry on a paper towel.
• Allow the butter to come to room temperature so it will soften.
• Slightly mash the berries.
• Combine all the ingredients and refrigerate.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
• To make the topping, in a medium bowl, mix together the topping ingredients until crumbly. Set aside.
• In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the melted butter. Add the buttermilk and lemon zest and whisk to combine. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir just to combine. (Batter will still be somewhat lumpy; do not overmix.) Gently fold in the blueberries and raspberries so the berries do not break open and pour into the prepared muffin tin. Crumble the streusel topping over the muffins and bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
• Let cool in the tins for 10 minutes, then remove and cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread all of the almonds (1½ cups) onto a cookie sheet and bake for 4 to 5 minutes or until the nuts just begin to brown and become aromatic. Remove from oven and let cool. Line the bottoms of two 9-inch cake pans with parchment or waxed paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Prepare the cake batter: Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl; set aside. Beat the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment for 5 to 8 minutes or until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, scraping between additions. Stir in the flour mix, almond extract and ½ cup of the toasted almonds until just blended. Do not over mix.
• Bake the cake: Fill each of the prepared pans with half of the batter. Place the pans in the center of the oven. Bake until the center is firm or when the tip of a small knife emerges clean when it pierces the center of each cake, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool.
• Make the lemon curd: While the cake is baking, whisk the sugar, eggs, lemon juice and zest together in a microwave-safe bowl. Add the butter. Microwave for 4 to 6 minutes, stirring every minute until the mixture thickens. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and poke a few holes into the wrap with the tip of a knife to allow steam to escape. Refrigerate until completely cooled.
• Prepare the cakes, fruit and almonds: Slice the rounded tops of the cakes to flatten them. Carefully slice the cakes in half, horizontally, through the middle to create 4 layers. Stir the raspberry jam with 1 tablespoon of water to loosen the texture and toss gently with the raspberries. Whip the cream to medium peaks.
• Assemble the trifle: Place one cake round in the bottom of the trifle bowl, trimming the edges if necessary to fit. Spread about 1/3 of the lemon curd over the cake. Cover with about ½ cup of whipped cream and sprinkle with ¼ cup of the toasted almonds, ¼ of the raspberry mixture and 1 cup of blueberries. Repeat the same process for two more layers. For the last layer, spread the cake with the remaining whipped cream, berries and nuts.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375ºF.
• Mix blueberries and raspberries. Toss half of berry mixture with 2 Tbsp. flour. Mix remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Beat cream cheese, butter and granulated sugar in large bowl with mixer until blended. Add milk, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla; mix well. Add flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Gently stir in berry mixture.
• Spoon into 12 muffin cups sprayed with cooking spray. Top with remaining berries; sprinkle with coarse sugar.
• Bake 20 to 22 min. or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 min. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.

Steps:

• Dissolve cornstarch in cold water in a separate large bowl. Stir blueberries, raspberries, 3/4 cup sugar, and lemon juice into the cornstarch mixture; transfer to a cast-iron skillet and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Drop dough into the skillet by the spoonful. Put skillet onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until the topping is golden brown, about 25 minutes.

• Cream sugar and butter together in a third, large bowl until smooth. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Mix in berry mixture and vanilla extract. Stir in flour mixture until incorporated. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes.

Steps:

• Bring boiling-water canner, half full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain well before filling.
• Stem and crush blueberries thoroughly, one layer at a time. Measure exactly 2 cups prepared blueberries into 6- or 8-qt. saucepot. Crush raspberries thoroughly, one layer at a time. Measure exactly 4 cups prepared raspberries into blueberries in saucepot; stir until well blended.
• Stir pectin into prepared fruit in saucepot. Add butter to reduce foaming. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in sugar. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
• Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 10 min. Remove jars and place upright on a towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middles of lids with finger. (If lids spring back, lids are not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)
