Sausage and Blueberries

This recipe came jumping out of the pages while looking through my Gooseberry Patch 'Jolly Holidays' recipe book this Christmas season. I've made it at least twice since then, and have concluded it HAS to be shared!

Sausage and Blueberries

2 c. all-purpose flour 1/4 c. brown sugar, packed

1 t. baking powder 2 eggs

1/2 t. baking soda 1 c. sour cream

1/2 c. margarine 1 lb. ground sausage, browned

3/4 c. sugar 1 c. blueberries

Sift flour, baking powder and baking soda together in a medium bowl; set aside. Cream margarine in a large mixing bowl; add sugars, mixing well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition; mix flour mixture and sour cream alternately into sugar mixture. Fold in sausage and blueberries; pour into an ungreased 13"x9" baking pan. Cover; refrigerate overnight. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until golden on top; serve warm with blueberry sauce. Serves 10.

Blueberry Sauce:

1/2 c. sugar 2 c. blueberries

2 T. corn starch 1/2 t. lemon juice

1/2 c. water

Combine sugar and cornstarch in a medium saucepan; add water and blueberries. Heat and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly; continue heating for 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in lemon juice. Cool slightly before serving. Makes 2 cups.

It sounds a little labor intense to make the sauce from scratch, but trust me...it's worth every second! It really doesn't take that long to make either.

Tonight was a 'breakfast for supper' kind of night, but we didn't have any eggs. I ended up making waffles and topped them with the blueberry sauce and plain greek yogurt. It was amazing!!!

Enjoy!
