Warm Peach And Blueberry Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the peaches: Add the blueberries, 2 tablespoons brown sugar and 1 cup water to a medium saucepan and bring to medium heat. Simmer until syrupy, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Meanwhile, punch out circles from the pound cake using a ring mold and reserve.
• Put the peaches, 1/2 cup brown sugar and 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan and cook, covered, over medium heat until the peaches are soft and tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
• For the maple pecans: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix the pecans, maple syrup, olive oil and salt in a bowl. Spread on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Break apart into pieces.
• For the vanilla whipped cream: Add the cream to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip to soft peaks. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla and whip to stiff peaks.
• To assemble: In a wide-mouth serving glass or parfait dish that fits the circles of pound cake, layer a pound cake circle, a layer of blueberries, another pound cake circle, a layer of peaches, a large dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of nuts. Repeat with the remaining ingredients in 5 more glasses.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Immerse the peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until their skins peel off easily. Place them immediately in cold water. Peel the peaches, slice them into thick wedges, and place them in a large bowl. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, granulated sugar, and flour. Toss well. Gently mix in the blueberries. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes. Spoon the mixture into ramekins or custard cups.
• For the topping, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, and the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until the butter is the size of peas. Rub the mixture with your fingertips until it's in big crumbles, then sprinkle evenly over the fruit. Place the ramekins on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the tops are browned and crisp and the juices are bubbly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• If you want to make these early, store the unbaked crumbles in the refrigerator and bake before dinner.

Steps:

• Boil 3 tablespoons sugar with vinegar, and 1 cup blueberries in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan, stirring, 1 minute. Remove from heat.
• Combine remaining 2 cups blueberries with peach slices in a large bowl. Toss with hot blueberry syrup and black pepper, then add sugar to taste. Let stand, tossing occasionally, 30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt. Gradually whisk in water until smooth. Add blueberries, lemon zest and juice; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook and stir until thickened, 2-3 minutes (some berries will remain whole). Serve warm or chilled over ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch glass baking dish.
• Pour peaches into the prepared dish, and sprinkle the blueberries over the peaches. In a bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, and baking powder until thoroughly combined. With a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture to make a crumble, and spread the crumble mixture over the fruit.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Allow to cool; filling will thicken as it cools.

Steps:

• Immerse 8 pint jars in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash lids and rings in warm soapy water.
• Combine peaches, 5 cups sugar, and lemon juice in a large stainless steel or other nonreactive pot over medium heat. Bring to a low boil and cook for 10 to 20 minutes.
• While peaches are cooking, combine blueberries and remaining sugar in a separate pot over medium heat. Bring to a low boil and cook until just starting to thicken, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Add blueberries to the pot with the peaches and cook until thickened to the consistency of jam, about 10 minutes more. Remove from heat, add butter and almond extract, and stir well.
• Pack jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
