Brunch|Dessert|Vegetarian

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter, softened to room temp

½ cup + 2 tablespoons sugar, divided

2 ½ cups blackberries

3 large eggs

¾ cup milk

1 cup heavy cream

¾ cup flour

1 teaspoon salt

½ cup brown sugar

1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Powdered sugar

Whipped cream (recipe below)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Coat a small baking dish (about 8” x 10”) or pie plate with the softened butter on bottom and up sides. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the sugar in the pan, turning and tapping the dish with your hands to make sure all of the butter is evenly coated with the sugar.

Place 1 ½ cups of the blackberries in an even layer on the bottom of the baking dish.

Place the eggs, milk, heavy cream, flour, salt, the remaining ½ cup of white sugar, the brown sugar, and vanilla extract in a blender. Blend on medium speed for 20 seconds and stop to scrape down the sides. Blend for another 30 seconds until bubbly on top. Pour this mixture over the berries. Then, sprinkle the remaining cup of berries over the top – do not worry if they sink.

Bake for 45 minutes until browned and crisp on top. Let cool for 10 minutes and serve with homemade whipped cream on top! YUM!!

WHIPPED CREAM

1 cup heavy cream

2 tablespoon powdered sugar

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Place all of the ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer (if you chill the bowl in the freezer for a few minutes before it will speed up the process). Whip on high with the whisk attachment until the cream thickens to desired consistency.
