Baked Blueberry Puff

Recipe By : Have Your Cake and Eat It, Too, Susan G Purdy, pg 76
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Breads Breakfast
Desserts Low Fat
Luncheon Main Dishes
Side Dish

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 Tbsp unsalted butter
nonstick cooking spray -- butter flavor or reg
1 Lg Egg Beaters® 99% Egg Substitute -- *Note, Plus
1 Lg egg white -- lightly beaten
1/2 C all-purpose flour
1/2 C skim milk
1/2 Tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp granulated sugar
Pinch nutmeg
Pinch salt
1 C fresh blueberries -- rinse, pat dry
1/2 lemon
1/4 C confectioner's sugar

Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 deg F.
After preheating for 10 min, add the butter and a 5 sec spray of cooking
spray (I didn't use this much spray) to the pan. Set the pan in the oven to
preheat 10 min.

In a large bowl, whisk together the egg and egg white, then whisk in flour,
milk, vanilla, sugar, nutmeg, and salt. Stir in the berries.

Set a small sifter in a dish and pour the confectioner's sugar into it. Set
this and the lemon half (plus a reamer if you have one) near the stove.

Pour the batter into the preheated pan and return it to the oven to bake for
15 - 20 min, until the edges are puffed up high and are golden brown.
Remove the pan from the oven. Squeeze the juice of the halved lemon over
the whole surface of the pancake, and sift on the confectioner's sugar.
Serve hot, directly from the baking pan, cut into wedges. Spoon a little of
the pan sauce over each slice.

Yield: One 10" pancake; 4 servings.

Advance Preparation:
Baking pan must be preheated in the oven for at least 15 min before adding
the batter. The pancake must be served as soon as it is baked.

Temperature and Time:
425 deg F for 20 min to preheat pan, plus 15 min to bake pancake.

Although the recipes contains blueberries, you can make it with other
berries or sliced fruit. Or you can make it plain without any berries, just
lemon juice and sugar on top. Or as a dessert you could prepare the pancake
plain and serve it with a fruit compote and vanilla nonfat/lowfat/regular
yogurt.

1/4-inch strips to make 1/4 cup; set remainder aside. Mix ricotta and

grapes, and prosciutto strips on crust. Combine sugar and cinnamon;
