Blueberry-Challah Pandowdy
- For the blueberry filling
- 4 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- For the challah topping
- 3 cups torn challah pieces (see headnote)
- 5 tablespoons heavy cream, plus more for serving
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- Position a rack in the top third of the oven. Preheat to 375u0b0 F.
- Combine the blueberry filling ingredients in a bowl. Toss with a spoon or by hand, smushing some of the berries to release their juices. Pour into a 9-inch pie pan.
- Combine the challah and cream in another bowl. Toss until all the bread pieces are coated. Distribute evenly on top of the blueberries. Sprinkle with sugar and salt.
- Bake for about about 35 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbly and jammy, and the top is deeply browned. Cool for a little while before serving. This helps the fruit set up a bit. To serve: Scoop into a shallow bowl and drizzle with cream.
