Baked goods filling Recipe

American · Filling · 25 min total

A versatile, sweet fruit filling perfect for pies, tarts, turnovers, and pastries. This recipe uses frozen mixed berries for year-round convenience.

Ingredients

• 3 cups frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine frozen berries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt. Stir to coat berries.
2. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 10-12 minutes.
3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until filling is glossy and very thick.
4. Remove from heat and let cool completely before using. Filling will continue to thicken as it cools.

Tips

• Cool filling completely before using in pastries to prevent soggy crusts.
• Store leftover filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
• Substitute with fresh berries in season; reduce sugar to 1/3 cup if berries are very sweet.
