Blueridgeblackberrylemonbars Recipes

Steps:

• For the blueberry crust: Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9x12-inch baking dish.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, confectioners' sugar, blueberry powder, lemon zest, salt and cold butter cubes. Pulse several times until a ball starts to form. Place the dough in the buttered dish and press down firmly to form and even bottom crust. Bake until the crust is golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool slightly. Set aside.
• For the lemon filling: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest. Sift the flour and baking powder together and add to the eggs. Mix well. Pour the lemon filling over the crust. Scatter the fresh blueberries over the filling. Return to the oven and bake until the filling is set when the pan is jiggled, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before cutting into squares.
• Dust with confectioners' sugar. The bars will keep for 4 to 5 days in the refrigerator. Try freezing the bars with wooden popsicle sticks inserted in them for a cooling summertime treat!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees and line a 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper so it hangs over the edges on all sides by a few inches. (You may need to use two pieces of parchment.)
• Make the crust: In the bowl of a food processor, pulse to combine the flour, confectioners' sugar, lemon zest and salt. Add butter and pulse until a crumbly dough forms, about 10 seconds. (Or mix dry ingredients in a bowl and use pastry cutter to cut in butter, clumping the mixture together in your hands until it holds together.) Press dough into prepared pan. Bake until light golden, 25 to 35 minutes.
• As crust bakes, make the curd: In a medium pot, whisk together the granulated sugar, lemon juice, egg yolks, whole eggs, cornstarch and fine sea salt until well combined. Place over medium heat and stir with a heatproof rubber spatula (or wooden spoon), making sure to scrape around the sides and edges of the pot, until mixture is simmering and thickened, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Bring mixture to a boil and let cook for about 30 seconds, but no longer than 1 minute. Immediately strain through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl. Stir in butter, lemon zest and lime zest, and stir until butter melts. Stir in blueberries.
• Pour mixture over crust, then stir to evenly distribute berries. Return to oven, and bake until blueberries begin to burst and curd starts to turn golden around the edges, 33 to 45 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool to room temperature. Chill in the refrigerator until thoroughly cold before cutting, at least 3 hours. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar right before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Line bottom and sides of a 13- x 9-inch pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil, allowing 2 to 3 inches to extend over sides; lightly grease foil.
• Pulse 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and 1 cup butter in a food processor 5 to 6 times or until mixture is crumbly. Press mixture onto bottom of prepared pan.
• Bake at 350° on an oven rack one-third up from bottom of oven 25 minutes or just until golden brown.
• Whisk together eggs and next 3 ingredients in a large bowl until blended.
• Combine baking powder, salt, and remaining 1/4 cup flour; whisk into egg mixture until blended. Pour lemon mixture into prepared crust.
• Pulse 2 cups blackberries and 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a food processor 3 to 4 times or until blended. Transfer mixture to a small saucepan.
• Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, 5 to 6 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Pour through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a bowl, gently pressing blackberry mixture with back of a spoon; discard solids.
• Drizzle over lemon mixture in pan.
• Bake at 350° on middle oven rack 30 to 35 minutes or until filling is set. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 30 minutes.
• Lift from pan onto wire rack, using foil sides as handles, and let cool 30 minutes or until completely cool. Remove foil, and cut into 24 (2-inch) squares; sprinkle with powdered sugar. Garnish, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, allowing a 1-inch overhang.
• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add white chocolate and stir until chocolate is melted and incorporated with the butter. Scrape mixture into a large mixing bowl and whisk in the brown sugar until smooth. Whisk in the lemon juice, zest, and salt until all is combined. Whisk in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract.
• Stir in flour. Using a rubber spatula, fold in blueberries. Scrape batter into the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer; it will be a bit thick.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and allow blondies to cool for at least 15 minutes in the pan. When ready to serve, lift the blondies out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and place on a cutting board.
• To make the glaze: Whisk powdered sugar and lemon juice together in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over the blondies. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Have all ingredients at room temperature.
• In a bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt.
• Place butter and sugar in mixer, with the paddle attachment, mix at low speed until light and fluffy.
• Add eggs and vanilla; beat until smooth.
• Add milk, flour mixture, and oats; stir until blended, scraping down sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Stir in blueberries (batter will be stiff).
• Spread evenly in a greased 9x13" pan.
• Sprinkle cereal over top.
• Bake at 350 until golden brown and tester comes comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool in pan. Cut into bars.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
• In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup sugar, 3 cups flour, and baking powder. Mix in salt and cinnamon, if desired. Use a fork or pastry cutter to blend in the shortening and egg. Dough will be crumbly. Pat half of dough into the prepared pan.
• In another bowl, stir together the sugar and cornstarch. Gently mix in the blueberries. Sprinkle the blueberry mixture evenly over the crust. Crumble remaining dough over the berry layer.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until top is slightly brown. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
