Fruity Dessert Lasagna Recipes

FRUITY DESSERT LASAGNA

Steps:

• 1. Cook the lasagna noodles boiling them only 3 minutes, drain. They will continue to cook while they are baking.
• 2. Drain the frozen fruit, reserving the juice for another use. Like a wonderful evening beverage if you catch my drift?
• 3. Beat the eggs + the yolk once they are well mixed add the sugar, sour cream, cinnamon, vanilla.
• 4. Add the fruit to the egg mixture and gently mix to incorporate.
• 5. Butter a 9 X 12 inch baking pan.
• 6. Starting with the noodles, layer a single layer of the noodles, then the fruit then the noodles ending with the egg mixture.
• 7. Bake about 1 hour at 350 "depending on your oven" till it is all golden brown.
• 8. Whip the heavy cream till it forms stiff peaks, add the almond flavoring and mix for 1 minute longer.
• 9. When you are ready to serve top with whipped topping and dust with the toasted crushed almonds.

FABULOUS FRUIT LASAGNA

Steps:

• 1. Heat oven to 350˚F.
• 2. Lay 3 cooked lasagna (or chocolate) noodles in the bottom of 9-inch-square glass or metal baking pan you've coated with nonstick spray or buttered.
• 3. In a large bowl, combine the ricotta and mascarpone cheeses, white sugar, and egg, and beat until almost smooth.
• 4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, chili powder, and melted butter. Mix well.
• 5. Gently fold the sliced strawberries into the raspberries, blackberries and blueberries, being careful not to crush the raspberries.
• 6. Top the first layer of lasagna noodles with one-third of the berry mixture followed by one-third of the flour-sugar-spice mixture and one third of the cheese-egg-sugar mixture. Repeat, adding two more layers of all three components.
• 7. Bake for 45 minutes in an oven or over indirect heat in covered barbecue grill, until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Remove, cool for 10-15 minutes, and then serve with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

BERRY DESSERT LASAGNA

Steps:

• Stir 1 cup sugar and 1/3 cup water together in a small saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely, about 5 minutes. Add the sugar mixture and the raspberries to a blender and blend until completely smooth. Strain the raspberries through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl.
• Beat the heavy cream with the vanilla and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Place a pound cake on its side and slice lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick strips to make the lasagna "noodles." Repeat with the second pound cake. Place 2 pieces of cake side-by-side in the bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. Pour 1/4 cup of the raspberry sauce over the cake and smooth out with a silicone spatula. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons coconut, dollop with 1/4 cup whipped cream and sprinkle with a third of the blueberries. Repeat this process 3 more times so you have a total of 4 layers. Chill for 6 hours and up to overnight. Slice and serve.

YUMMY PEACH LASAGNA

Steps:

• 1. If you're not using fresh lemon juice, use about 3 Tbsp. of lemon juice. On bread: you'll need enough slices of bread to be two layers in the baking dish. Use good, crusty, country bread. preheat oven to 350
• 2. Peel and slice peaches in thin segments and place in medium to large bowl. Add zest of lemon and lemon juice. Add 1/2 c. sugar and toss to coat all the peaches. Do not skip the lemon juice - it doesn't really impart much of a lemony flavor, but it will keep the edges of the peaches from browning and looking unappetizing. Set aside.
• 3. Take an 8x8 baking dish and figure out how many slices of bread you'll need to make two layers of bread. Toast that many slices. Butter both sides. Make a layer of double-buttered toast in the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Make a layer of peaches on top of the toast. Use about half the peaches. Make another layer of double-buttered toast on top of the peaches. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Make a layer of peaches on top of the toast. Pour over any juice.
• 4. In a small bowl, combine 1/3 c. flour, 1/4 c. sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt. Cut the butter into small pieces and work the mixture together with your fingers until the mixture is well combined and looks like streusel topping you'd find on a coffee cake. Put the crumb topping as the top layer. Bake at 350°F for 1 hour. Serve warm, with ice cream.
