FRENCH TOAST KEBABS WITH FOIL-PACKET BLACKBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Stack two 12-inch-long pieces of heavy-duty foil. Toss the blackberries, 2 tablespoons sugar and the butter on the foil. Bring the short ends of the foil together and fold to seal, then fold in the sides and seal. Grill until the fruit is bubbling and the juices are syrupy, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer the berries to a bowl.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, half-and-half, the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, the vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of salt in a bowl until well combined. Put the challah in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Pour the egg mixture on top and let soak, turning to coat, 1 to 2 minutes. Thread onto 6 skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 20 minutes first). Grill, turning, until well marked, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a platter and dust with confectioners' sugar. Drizzle with maple syrup and serve with the blackberry sauce.

CUCUMBER-FETA TOASTS

Steps:

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash together feta, 4 teaspoons oil, and lemon juice with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Spread feta mixture evenly over toasted baguette and top with cucumber. Season with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and a drizzle of oil. Cut into pieces to serve.

ROASTED FIGS AND FETA SPREAD TOASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Wash the figs and remove the tough stem. Cut them in half and place in a small baking dish.
• Toss the figs with the balsamic vinegar (or orange liqueur), the thyme and the lemon zest. Turn the figs so they are all cut-side-down on the baking dish. They should fit in a single layer.
• Roast the figs for about 20 minutes and remove them from the oven. They should still have some juices at this point. Let them cool.
• While the figs are roasting, prepare the Feta spread: place the Feta, Greek yogurt, vinegar, salt and pepper in a small food processor and process until fairly smooth.
• Add the extra virgin olive oil in a slow, steady stream while continuing to pulse (you may need more or less olive oil, depending on the consistency you desire). Taste and adjust the seasoning. Refrigerate or use right away.
• Assemble the toasts by slathering a layer of the Feta spread over the toasted bread, top with two or three fig halves (depending on the size of the toast), drizzle with the pan juices and some extra honey (to taste), and sprinkle with fresh thyme, lemon zest, and some sesame seeds (optional).
