Ingredients

Techniques
- 2 cup blueberries
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp homemade blackberry jam
- 1 cup milk
- 4 whole egg yolks
- ¼ cup sugar
- 4 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 cup flour
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ pod vanilla
- 6 oz cold diced butter
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 pod vanilla
- 3 tbsp sugar
In a saute pan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and cornstarch; bring to a simmer and cook about five minutes until well thickened.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar and cornstarch until smooth; slowly pour in the hot milk while whisking.
Return to the pot and cook over low to medium heat until thickened, three to five minutes, lifting the pot off the stove occasionally so the bottom does not overcook.
For the streusel, rub the flour, sugar, salt, vanilla and cold diced butter together by hand to between mealy and chunky.
Stovetop streusel
- salt
Cook in a pan over medium heat about 10 minutes, stirring constantly so no bits get too dark.
- milk
Whip the pastry cream until very smooth, loosening with a little milk if too thick, to roughly the consistency of the whipped cream; fold a few good dollops of it into the cream without deflating it.
Spoon warm blueberry filling into a serving dish, top generously with streusel and finish with a dollop of Bavarian cream.
