Blueberry Oat Crumble Bars

Ella - Home Cooking Adventure — Fri, 26 Jul 2024 04:23:09 +0000

These Blueberry Oat Crumble Bars are a delightful treat perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert. These bars feature a luscious blueberry filling sandwiched between layers of crumbly, buttery oat mixture.

The base and topping are made from a blend of rolled oats, flour, sugar, and butter, creating a rich and crispy crust that pairs perfectly with the juicy fruit center. The blueberry filling enhanced with lemon juice is bursting with flavor and balances perfectly the sweetness.

Easy to prepare, these bars come together in a few simple steps. First, press the oat mixture into a baking dish to form the crust, followed by a generous layer of blueberry filling. Crumble the remaining oat mixture on top before baking to golden perfection.

These Blueberry Oat Crumble Bars are not only delicious but also nutritious, providing a good source of fiber and antioxidants from the oats and blueberries. They are perfect for any time of day and are sure to satisfy both kids and adults alike.

How to make Blueberry Oat Crumble Bars

Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). Slightly grease a 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) pan and line it with parchment paper, ensuring that the edges extend beyond the sides of the pan to make it easier to lift the bars out.

In a bowl, combine the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter and vanilla extract, stirring until the mixture combines well and crumbly. Press ⅔ of this crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.

Next, place the blueberries into a separate bowl. Add the sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch, then toss to coat the blueberries evenly. Spread the blueberry mixture over the crust in the pan.

Sprinkle the reserved ⅓ of the crumb mixture over the top of the blueberries.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned.

Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 4 days.

Blueberry Cream Cheese Buns

Ella - Home Cooking Adventure — Thu, 30 May 2024 11:55:38 +0000

These Blueberry Cream Cheese Buns are a delightful treat that combines soft, fluffy dough with sweet blueberries and creamy cheese filling. Inside each bun, you’ll find a rich filling with a smooth cream cheese topped with juicy blueberries. The blueberries add a burst of color, flavor and sweetness with a slight tang.

These Cream Cheese Buns are beloved worldwide and are known under various names. One of the most well-known names for these delightful buns is Vatrushka. Vatrushka is enjoyed throughout Russia and other Eastern European countries. Today, you can find variations of these Cream Cheese Buns/Vatrushka in bakeries and cafes across the globe, each offering its unique twist on this classic delight.

Making these buns is easy and fun. First, you shape the dough into buns and let them rise until they are light and airy. Then you need to create a well in the center of each and divide the cream cheese filling evenly. Then, you sprinkle the blueberries over the top. Finally, you bake them until they are golden.

The result is a warm, fragrant bun with a deliciously sweet and creamy center. These Blueberry Cream Cheese Buns are perfect for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert. They pair wonderfully with a cup of coffee or tea, making them a great choice for a cozy morning or a special afternoon treat.

How to make the blueberry cream cheese buns

To create a batch of delightful cream cheese and blueberry buns, start by preparing the dough. In a large bowl, combine yeast with 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1/4 cup of lukewarm milk. Let this mixture rest for 5 minutes to activate the yeast.

Next, add the remaining ingredients to the bowl: flour, sugar, salt, the rest of the milk, an egg, vanilla extract, and softened butter. Knead the mixture for about 5 to 7 minutes until the dough is smooth and slightly pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rest in a warm space for about 1 hour until it has doubled in size.

Once the dough has risen, divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a bun and place them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cover the buns with a kitchen towel and let them rest for another 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).

Prepare the cream cheese filling, by whisking together cream cheese, powdered sugar, an egg, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until smooth. Transfer this mixture to a piping bag fitted with a plain tip.

How to shape the final buns

To shape the buns, press each one with a glass dipped in flour to create a well in the center. Fill the wells with the cream cheese mixture and top each bun with fresh blueberries. Brush the edges of the buns with beaten egg.

Bake the buns in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until they are nicely golden. Once baked, transfer the buns to a wire rack to cool slightly. For the finishing touch, dust the buns with powdered sugar before serving.

Hope you will try these these delicious blueberry cream cheese buns and enjoy them either for breakfast or as a sweet treat. If you do, don’t forget to tag me in your Instagram stories or posts.

How to make the buns in advance

By preparing the dough in advance and refrigerating it, you can enjoy freshly baked cream cheese buns with minimal effort on the day you plan to serve them.

To make these buns in advance you will need to prepare the dough and let it rise until doubles in size. After shaping the buns and placing them on the baking tray, cover them loosely with plastic wrap. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and let the dough rise slowly overnight. The cold temperature will slow the yeast activity, allowing the dough to develop more flavor.

When you’re ready to bake, remove the buns from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before filling them.

How to make chocolate blueberry mousse cake

Begin by preheating the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and line two 8-inch (20cm) springform pans with parchment paper.

How to prepare the cocoa brownie layers

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and salt until well combined. Incorporate the oil and vanilla extract. Sift the flour and cocoa powder, then whisk them into the egg mixture until fully incorporated.

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached. Allow the brownie layers to cool completely.

How to prepare the blueberry sauce

In a saucepan, combine fresh or frozen blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Strain the mixture through a sieve to achieve a smooth sauce. Let the blueberry sauce cool completely.

How to prepare the white chocolate mousse

Melt the white chocolate and 5 oz (145g) of whipping cream over a bain-marie. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. In a small bowl, let the gelatin powder soak in cold water for 5-10 minutes. Then, dissolve the gelatin over low heat and pour it into the chocolate mixture, stirring to combine. In another bowl, whip the chilled cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the white chocolate mixture into the whipped cream until well combined.

Begin assembling the chocolate blueberry mousse cake

Place the first brownie layer on a serving platter and secure a cake ring around it. Line the cake ring with an acetate sheet. Pour the white chocolate mousse over the brownie layer, spreading it evenly and smoothing the top. Freeze the assembled layer for 20-30 minutes to set.

How to prepare the blueberry mousse

Dissolve the gelatin in cold water and let it swell for about 5-10 minutes. Then, place the gelatin over low heat just until it dissolves, and mix it into the cooled blueberry sauce. In another bowl, whip the chilled cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the blueberry mixture into the whipped cream until well combined.

Continue assembling the cake by cutting the second brownie layer with a 7-inch (18cm) cake ring. Place this layer on top of the white chocolate mousse layer. Pour the blueberry mousse over the second brownie layer, spreading it evenly and smoothing the top. Refrigerate the assembled cake for 4-6 hours to allow it to set.

Decorate the cake

To finish, prepare the whipped cream for decorating. Whip the cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Transfer the whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a 6B tip. Pipe the sweetened whipped cream onto the top of the cake in your desired design. Garnish with fresh blueberries and the cake is now ready to slice and enjoy.

How to make the blueberry cheesecake bars

There are few simple steps you need to follow to create this mouthwatering treat that will impress your family and friends. First prepare the blueberry sauce, then continue with the crust and cream cheese filling. Assemble the cake and bake. Chill and enjoy of the best cheesecake bars ever.

How to prepare the blueberry sauce

In a saucepan, combine fresh blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Stir the mixture and bring it to a boil. Allow it to simmer for approximately 5 minutes until the blueberries become soft and the sauce thickens. Once done, strain the sauce and set it aside to cool.

How to make the crust

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Take an 8-inch (20cm) square springform pan and line it with parchment paper. In a food processor, crush graham crackers or digestive biscuits until they turn into fine crumbs.

Add melted butter and sugar to the crumbs and mix until they are evenly moistened. Press this crumbly mixture firmly onto the bottom of the prepared pan using the back of a spoon. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-13 minutes until it turns golden. Once baked, set it aside to cool completely.

How to prepare the cream cheese filling

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until it becomes smooth and creamy. Add sugar, a pinch of salt, and cornstarch to the cream cheese, mixing until everything is well combined. Crack an egg into the mixture and blend it thoroughly. Stir in the vanilla extract, lemon zest, and sour cream, ensuring a smooth and well-blended batter. Be cautious not to overmix the batter to avoid incorporating excess air.

How to assemble and bake the blueberry cheesecake bars

Pour the prepared cream cheese filling over the cooled crust in the pan. Take the blueberry sauce you prepared earlier and gently spoon it on top of the cream cheese layer. Use a skewer to create beautiful swirls on the surface, combining the two layers to create an enticing marbled pattern.

Lower the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C) and bake the cheesecake bars for 25-30 minutes. Once done, remove the pan from the oven and run a sharp knife around the inner edge to loosen the bars. Allow the cheesecake to cool completely at room temperature. Cover the pan and refrigerate the bars overnight to allow them to set perfectly.

The next day, carefully transfer the chilled Blueberry Cheesecake Bars onto a serving platter. Cut them into squares and enjoy the delightful combination of creamy cheesecake and juicy blueberry swirls.

The cheesecake filling is smooth and velvety, and it sits on top of a buttery cookie crust. The star of this dessert is the blueberry crisp topping.

The combination of the creamy cheesecake, buttery crust, and the irresistible blueberry crisp topping creates a dessert experience that is truly unforgettable. Each spoonful is a delightful journey through layers of creamy, crunchy, and fruity goodness that will leave you wanting more.

How to make Blueberry Cheesecake

To make a scrumptious blueberry cheesecake, start by preparing the crust. Continue with preparing the blueberry filling and crisp topping. Next prepare the cream cheese filling and then you can assemble the cheesecake. Bake the cheesecake and let cool to room temperature before refrigerating.

Prepare the cookie crust

Place the crackers or digestive biscuits into the bowl of a food processor and crush them until they turn into fine crumbs. Add sugar to the crumbs and pour in the melted butter. Mix everything together until the mixture is evenly moistened.

Take the mixture and press it firmly into the bottom of a 8-inch (20 cm) pan. Bake the crust at 350°F (180°C) for 10-13 minutes until the crust becomes lightly golden. Once baked, set the crust aside and allow it to cool completely.

Now, it’s time to reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C) in preparation for baking the cheesecake.

Prepare the crisp topping and blueberry filling

For the crisp topping, combine oats, sugar, and all-purpose flour in a medium bowl, whisking until well combined. Incorporate melted butter into the mixture until it becomes crumbly. Set it aside for now.

In another medium bowl, place the blueberries and add lemon juice, sugar, and flour. Stir until the blueberries are evenly coated. Set this aside as well while you move on to the cream cheese filling.

Prepare the cream cheese filling

In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese with sugar, salt, lemon zest and flour, mixing until everything is combined. Then, add the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated. Add vanilla extract and sour cream and mix until well combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter to avoid incorporating too much air.

Assemble the blueberry cheesecake

Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust in the baking pan. Gently spread the blueberries on top, and sprinkle the oat topping over the blueberries. Place the cheesecake in the oven and bake at 300°F (150°C) for approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour.

After baking, turn off the heat and leave the cheesecake in the oven for an additional hour. Then, carefully remove it and run a sharp knife around the inside edge of the pan. Allow it to cool completely at room temperature before covering and refrigerating overnight.

When ready to serve, transfer the cheesecake to a serving platter and dust it with powdered sugar. Enjoy it as is or serve it with a delicious blueberry sauce on the side.

Whether you enjoy it on a warm summer day or as a comforting treat during colder times, this blueberry cheesecake is a classic dessert that never disappoints. Hope you will try it out. If you do, don’t forget to share the photos with me on Instagram. Enjoy!
