Spiced Blueberries Recipes

Steps:

• For filling:
• Mix all ingredients in 12-inch-diameter skillet. Bring to boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium; simmer until berries soften and mixture thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare dumplings:
• Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in medium bowl to blend. Add butter and rub in with fingertips until mixture resembles fine meal. Add milk; stir just until blended and sticky dough forms.
• Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto simmering berry mixture, placing close together. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover skillet and simmer until dumplings are firm and tester inserted into dumplings comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Scoop warm dessert into bowls.
• To serve:
• Top with whipped cream, whipping cream, or ice cream.

Steps:

• Place berries in a large saucepan and add vinegar and spices; boil for 30 minutes.
• Add sugar and boil for an additional 30 minutes or until thickened sufficiently.
• Stir occasionally after adding sugar to prevent scorching.
• Pour into sterilized jars and seal.

Steps:

• Rinse and clean blueberries.
• If using frozen dry pack Blueberries, thaw them first.
• In small saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg; gradually stir in water and lemon juice.
• Over medium heat, cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and comes to a boil.
• Add blueberries; cook and stir until mixture comes back to a boil.
• Serve warm over ice cream or cake or frozen pies.

Steps:

• Place the cinnamon sticks, cloves, and allspice berries onto the center of a 8 inch square piece of cheesecloth. Gather together the edges of the cheesecloth, and tie with kitchen twine to secure. Place spice sachet into a large saucepan and pour in the vinegar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat; cook for 5 minutes. Stir blueberries into the vinegar; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. As the blueberries heat, gently shake the pot. Do not stir to avoid breaking the berries. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand at room temperature for 8 to 12 hours.
• Pour berries and liquid into a colander set over a bowl. Remove spice sachet. Transfer berries to hot, sterilized canning jars; reserve the liquid. Return liquid to saucepan and place over high heat. Stir in the white and brown sugars; bring to a boil. Boil until thickened, about 4 minutes.
• Ladle hot syrup over berries, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with sterilized lids; screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups.
• In large bowl, mix all ingredients except blueberries. Gently fold in blueberries. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
• Bake 17 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to cooling rack. Serve warm, if desired.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, cook and stir quinoa over medium heat until lightly toasted, 5-7 minutes. Stir in almond milk, honey, cinnamon and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until quinoa is tender and liquid is almost absorbed, 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally., Remove from heat; stir in blueberries and vanilla. Sprinkle with almonds.

Steps:

• Place the apples and blueberries into a heavy bottomed pot large enough to hold all the ingredients and allow room for stirring.
• Add just enough water to cover the bottom of the pot-about 1/2 inch of water on the bottom or so.
• Put the pot onto high heat and stirring constantly, bring to a boil.
• Turn heat down to medium, and stirring continually, cook until the apples are all soft and some are beginning to break down, thickening the released fruit juices.
• Stir in the sugar and spices and keep cooking until the sugar is well combined.
• Turn off the heat, but keep the pot on the stove in order to keep the applesauce hot.
• Using an immersion blender, a food processor or food mill, grind the fruit up into a slightly chunky puree-or, if you wish, grind it down to a perfectly smooth puree.
• Stir in the lemon juice thoroughly, then pack into hot pint or quart jars.
• Try to get any visible air bubbles out with a spatula; this is very difficult with very thick foods like applesauce, but try anyway. Wipe off the rim of the jar with a damp cloth, then center a lid on top and screw on a band.
• Do not tighten the band-just screw it down until it is closed, but not at all difficult to unscrew.
• Put into a hot water bath canner, making certain that water covers the jars completely.
• Bring to a boil, clap the lids on top of the canner and process the jars for 20 minutes-the processing time is the same for either pints or quarts.
• When they have processed for twenty minutes, turn off the heat and open the lid to the canner.
• Allow the jars to sit in the hot water for five minutes, then carefully lift up each jar and set it on a folded dishtowel in order to keep the counter from possibly cooling the glass too rapidly, causing the jar to crack.
• Check the seals on the lids-they should be concave and very tightly adhered to the jar rim.
• If after 24 hours the lids have not sealed, either use up the food that did not seal, or re-pack using new jars and new lids.
• Recipe makes eight pints or four quarts.

Steps:

• Remove any stems from berries. Crush fruit 1 layer at a time. Measure 2 1/4 cups, packed solidly, if necessary, add water to make up amount, pour into very large saucepan or dutch oven.
• Add lemon juice, sugar and spices, mixing well. Bring to a full rolling boil, stirring 1 minute Remove from heat and immediately stir in pectin.
• Ladle into hot jelly glasses or jars. Water bath can 10 minutes at 1000 feet. Remove from canner, cool and test lids.
