Nectarine Blueberry Crisp Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. For the filling, in a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, nectarines, granulated sugar, lemon zest and cornstarch. Place the fruit mixture in a wide shallow baking dish (2 to 2 1/2 quarts) or eight 1-cup ramekins. Set aside.
• For the topping, in a food processor, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and a pinch of salt and pulse.
• Add the butter and vanilla to the food processor and pulse, pulse, pulse, until the mixture looks dry and crumbly. Add 1 tablespoon water and pulse again until the mixture starts to come together. If the mixture still seems dry, add 1 more tablespoon water and pulse again. Sprinkle the topping over the blueberry mixture.
• Bake the crisp until the filling is hot and bubbly and the topping is crispy and nicely browned, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the filling: Toss the blueberries and nectarines in a large bowl with the lemon zest and juice. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine. Divide the filling evenly among 4 (6-ounce) ramekins.
• For the topping: Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor except the water. Pulse until combined, this will take about 30 seconds. Add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture is clumpy but crumbly.
• Top each ramekin with the topping. Be sure to loosely sprinkle the topping and not pack it down. The idea is to look very crumbly and craggy.
• Place the ramekins on a sheet tray and bake in the oven until the filling is hot and bubbly and the topping is brown and crispy, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Sweeten the mascarpone with the sugar. Onto a small sheet pan or plate, neatly spoon 4 small portions of sweetened mascarpone and chill until ready to serve.
• Top each crisp with a quenelle of cold mascarpone. Serve the crisps warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400. Spray bottom and side of 9-inch round or square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine nectarines, blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon in medium bowl. Transfer to prepared pan; bake 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients in small bowl, stirring with fork until crumbly. Remove fruit mixture from oven; sprinkle with topping. Bake 20 minutes longer or until fruit is bubbly and topping is lightly browned. Serve warm.

Steps:

• To make the topping: Stir the flour and sugars in a medium bowl to blend. Add the cookies and almonds and mix well. Add the butter and rub in until moist clumps form.
• To make the filling: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13 by 9 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Stir the sugar and flour in a large bowl. Add the nectarines and blueberries, and toss to combine. Stir in the liqueur.
• Spoon the fruit mixture into the prepared dish. Sprinkle the cookie topping over. Bake until the nectarines are tender and the topping is golden and crisp, about 45 minutes. Cool at least 10 minutes. Spoon the warm crisp into bowls. Top each with a dollop of mascarpone cheese and serve.

Steps:

• Place a 2-quart baking dish or six 8-ounce ramekins on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Position rack in center of oven and heat to 375 degrees. In a food processor, pulse flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt once or twice to mix. Cut butter into small chunks, add to flour mixture and pulse a few more times, until mixture just comes together into small crumbly clumps. Reserve.
• In a large bowl, combine nectarines, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla. Pour nectarines into baking dish or ramekins, scatter blackberries on top and sprinkle with the topping. Bake until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden, 45-60 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a shallow five- to six-cup baking dish with a little butter.
• Lightly mix half a teaspoon of the cinnamon, half a cup of the brown sugar and the cornstarch together. Toss the nectarines with the lemon juice, fold in the sugar mixture and spread in the baking dish.
• With a fork or a pastry blender, or by pulsing in a food processor, combine the flour, remaining sugar and cinnamon with the remaining butter until crumbly. Spread over the nectarines.
• Bake about 40 minutes, until the top has browned and the filling is bubbly. Allow the crisp to cool to lukewarm, then serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

Steps:

• FOR THE FILLING
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, nectarines, sugar, lemon zest, and cornstarch.
• Place the fruit mixture in a wide, shallow baking dish (2 to 2 1/2 quarts) or eight 1-cup ramekins.
• FOR THE TOPPING
• In a food processor, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt and pulse.
• Add the butter and vanilla and pulse, pulse, pulse until the mixture looks dry and crumbly. Add 1 tablespoon water and pulse again until the mixture starts to come together. If the mixture still seems dry, add 1 more tablespoon water and pulse again. Sprinkle the topping over the blueberry mixture.
• Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the filling is hot and bubbly and the topping is crispy and nicely browned. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
• ANNE ALTERNATE
• Apples, peaches, pears, plums, berries-you can substitute pretty much any fruit or combination of fruit that you like here. Have fun!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees, and position a rack in the lower third of the oven. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine sugar, lemon zest and vanilla in a large bowl. Use your fingertips to rub the zest and seeds (or extract) into the sugar. Add the flour and salt and stir to combine. Add the nectarines, blueberries and lemon juice, but don't stir quite yet.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 12-inch round just under 1/4-inch thick. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet.
• Stir the filling to combine, then pile all the fruit in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Press the fruit gently to make sure there are no large open pockets. Fold the edges of the dough up and over the fruit and press gently to seal the folds.
• Put the whole baking sheet into the freezer, and chill the formed galette until the dough is very firm, about 15 minutes. Brush dough with the beaten egg, and sprinkle with sugar and salt. Bake until deep golden brown and the juices are bubbling, about 45 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.
