Well-known member
I could have sworn that I just read a post that referred to a peach dessert that was layered with pie crust (?). I thought it said that her husband thought he had seen a recipe on Food Network and someone responded that they thought it had been prepared by Bobby Flay's wife for his birthday. I could find nothing on Food Metwork tht looked like that and now I can't find the orgininal post. Can anyone help?

 
My mother in law makes a dish like this with blueberries

She calls it Pouding aux bleuets and it's kind of a traditional Quebec farmwife's dessert. I love it, it's delicious. She uses a stockpot and tosses blueberries with sugar like you would for a blueberry cobbler. She puts a layer of pie crust dough on the bottom, tops it with blueberries, another layer of pie dough, etc. until it's as deep as she wants it. For a crowd she makes it huge. Then she bakes it at 350 F until bubbly. It's quite delicious and the best part is the blueberry infused pie crust.

Thank you both. Mimi, can I use frozen blueberries for this? I have some in my freezer and this would be great to take for a dessert for 3 of us having dinner togetjer next week. the reqauest was for "nothing gooey"

 
Yes, it can be made with frozen blueberries fine...

Just one note, I totally forgot to mention this because it tastes so good regardless, but it's pretty watery when still hot, like most blueberry pies. It thickens nicely when cooled. She tosses a little cornstarch in with the blueberries. It's great hot with vanilla ice cream.

 
Sandy, this was posted at Mimi's Recipe Exchange...

"Here's the recipe that Bobby Flay's wife made for his birthday celebration..."

Quick Peach Cobbler

Crust:

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for shaping and rolling
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
4 to 6 tablespoons ice water

Peach Filling:

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch salt

10 ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices (if peaches are out of season, use thawed frozen peaches)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons heavy cream

Crust:
Place flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor and process for 5 seconds. Add butter and process until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add water, a few tablespoons at a time, until the dough just comes together.

Remove dough and knead lightly on a lightly floured surface until it just comes together. Divide the dough in half and form into disks. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Once dough is chilled, remove from the refrigerator and roll each disk into a 9-inch square approximately 1/4-inch thick. Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheets and return to the refrigerator to chill until ready to assemble.

Filling:
Melt butter in a large high-sided saute pan over medium heat. Add the sugar and water and cook until sugar is dissolved. Add nutmeg, salt, peaches, and flour and cook for 5 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Place half of the peach mixture in the bottom of a 9-inch square buttered baking dish using a slotted spoon. Top the peaches with 1 layer of dough. Place on a baking sheet and bake until the crust is light golden brown. Remove from the oven and top the crust with the remaining peaches and cover with the other crust. Brush the top crust with heavy cream, sprinkle with sugar, and return to the oven. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbly. Let cool for at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving.

A ? for Mimi & a thank you to Meryl

Do you bake the crust a little before adding the next layer of fruit? Meryl, don't know why I didn't check Mimi's Recipe Exchange. The 2 Mimi's are the ones that I check almost daily.Thank you.
