Blueberry Cornbread Panzanella Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until browned and crisp, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to cool, reserving the drippings in the skillet, then chop.
• Add half of the Cornbread cubes to the hot bacon drippings in the skillet and brown on all sides, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and let cool. Add vegetable oil to the skillet if it becomes dry, then brown the remaining cornbread cubes. Let cool.
• Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mustard and garlic in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the tomatoes, basil, capers, cucumber and onion. Toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, or serve right away.
• Just before serving, add the cornbread cubes and bacon and toss. Garnish with additional basil, if desired.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-inch baking pan with vegetable shortening or cooking spray.
• Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk, butter, vegetable oil and egg in a separate bowl. Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring just until the dry ingredients are moistened. (The batter will be lumpy and thick.)
• Bake the cornbread until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Arrange the Sour Cream Cornbread cubes on a baking pan in a single layer and bake until fairly dried out, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss together the tomatoes, celery, scallions, oil, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Let stand at least 10 minutes. Add the cornbread and basil and toss again to coat. Serve immediately.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a well-seasoned 10-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal mix, creamed corn, sour cream, oil and eggs. Pour the mixture into the skillet and bake until lightly browned, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl. Toss gently to combine. Place in a serving bowl and serve.

Steps:

• For the croutons: Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes and arrange on a baking sheet. Drizzle the cubes with the olive oil and toss to coat. Put the pan in the oven to slightly crisp ("stale") the bread without toasting it, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove and allow to cool.
• For the dressing: In a small jar, shake together the olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.
• For the salad: In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and bread cubes. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients, tossing gently. Add the sliced basil and Parmesan shavings and toss again. Sprinkle with more salt and pepper and serve garnished with whole basil leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Generously butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Whisk eggs and white sugar together in a bowl vigorously for 1 minute; add milk, buttermilk, and melted butter and mix together.
• Mix flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in another bowl. Stir into the wet ingredients. Fold in blueberries.
• Transfer batter to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool before cutting and serving.
