Brioche Toutons with Blueberry Honey Sauce

Originally published August 2010.

Here’s a very successful experiment that I tried last week when making brioche for a bread pudding I had planned for a dinner party. Here in Newfoundland we love our “toutons” which are  pieces of white bread dough, traditionally fried in fat back pork.

The first blueberries of the season, picked this  by my Dad a few years back.

The brioche dough needs to be fried at a lower temperature than regular toutons because of the sugar content.  That’s because they will brown much faster.

I usually fry mine in an olive oil/butter combination these days. Find my original touton recipe here.

I fried these at 325 degrees F. The blueberry honey sauce is a very simple but very delicious addition to these fancified toutons which turn out almost like homemade donuts. Well worth the try.
