bluberry pudgie pies

On our last camping trip, I tried something new. It was a big hit! Delicious!

Before we left I had bought some fresh blueberries. I used a pint and added 1/4 cup cranberry/rasp juice, 1/4 sugar, and 2 Tblsp of corn starch (smoothed with water). I cooked it until was thickened.

It would be easier to use pie filling, but I love the fresh and can monitor the consistency better.

I found that Pepperidge Farms has new blueberry swirl bread and that's what I used to make the pies. The bread says it's a limited item, so maybe they're testing the market.

If there is any left over, it makes delicious French toast. Thin down the blueberry compote to make it a little syrupy.

Enjoy!

  • Spray both sides of your pie maker with PAM, lay a slice of bread on each side, place 2 heaped Tblsp of filling in center of one slice of bread. Close the pie maker. Place above fire, and rotate every 3-4 minutes. Check every few minutes. It took about 8 minutes on each side, but it depends on how hot your fire/ embers are.

    Hope this explains it, well enough.
  • Here on the Northwest Coast, Franz Bakery has a blueberry bread that we use with blueberry pie filling. Then a cinnamon bread that is great with apple pie filling.
