Hello Nancy,
We have some lovely saskatoon berries up here this year.
(I'm not sure what they're called in the U.S.). Blueberries
may be substituted in these recipes.
Saskatoon Tarts
1 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
3 Tablespoons flour
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
Heat ingredients until sugar dissolves. (Careful that it
doesn't burn). Add 2 cups berries. Pour into pie shell or
tart shells and bake at 350 deg. F. Bake tarts for 30
minutes.
Saskatoon Squares
1 cup butter
1 tsp. baking powder
3/4 cup sugar
Pinch of salt
2 eggs
2 cups flour
Filling:
2 cups saskatoons
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 Tbsp. cornstarch, dissolved in 1/4 cup water
Mix first 6 ingredients as for pie crust. (I used a food
processor). Take 1/2 the mixture and line bottom of 9 x 12
inch pan.
Filling: Boil together and thicken with cornstarch dissolved
in water. Spread over top mixture and cover with remaining
pie crust mixture. Bake at 350 deg. F. until light brown,
approx. 20 minutes.
