MMMmonday - Hot Berries and Cream

Living in the South has some advantages, especially at this time of year when Florida strawberries are flooding our grocery stores, which means great sales...


I was looking for a simple, fairly quick way to showcase this year's berries, and Joe, the Chef at WWRecipes came to my rescue the other day with this yummy treat!  Easy, quick and made from ingredients I usually have on hand...


Hot Berries and Cream

1 cup (25 ml) sour cream
1 Tbs (15 ml) sugar
The grated zest of 1 lime
1/2 tsp (2 ml) ground cinnamon
1 pint (500 ml) fresh whole blueberries, blackberries,
raspberries, or halved strawberries
1/2 cup (125 ml) brown sugar

Stir together the sour cream, sugar, lime zest, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. 

Gently fold in the berries and transfer to a shallow baking dish or gratin dish. 
Sprinkle with the brown sugar and place under a preheated broiler. 
Broil until the brown sugar melts, 2 to 3 minutes. Serves 4 to 6.

I have some tiny single-use foil dishes that will be perfect for this - I'll probably be trying it out later this week, in fact! Thank you for the idea!

My recent post Stumble Tumble Tuesday!
Being in the frigid North, I need to shelve this for when berries are in season.
But it sure does sound yum.

living in nc, we too are lucky enough to have fresh strawberries several months out of the year. i have heard that sour cream and brown sugar makes a good dip for fruit. i have not, however, heard of a warm fruit dip. sounds really good and cant wait until the weather gets warm again so i can make this with good berries! thanks for posting!

This sounds great! Also not too dairy heavy for a dessert..
