Blackberries & Apples

Whilst in the garden today dodging the showers, discovered some blackberry on the thorn less blackberry “Loch Ness”. I decided I would make a cobbler with them and also use some apples from the garden.

Ingredients

  • 4 oz Blackberries
  • 2 eating apples peeled, cored and chopped in to small chunks
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2tbsp caster sugar
  • 1tbsp cornflour - Mix all these together in an open proof bowl
  • 6 oz Self-raising flour
  • 3 oz butter, chopped in to small chunks
  • 125ml plain low fat yoghurt3 oz caster sugar

Method

Mix in the food processor until you have a sticky mixture, place this on top of the blackberry and apple mixture, sprinkle top with some extra caster sugar and cook in the oven @ 180 deg C, for approx 40 mins. Serve with custard or cream

Hubby took a picture of the final result; the resulting cobbler was a nice rustic dessert, light and very moreish.

Great Blog Linzi,

That picture of the cobbler - fantastic! I'm a big fan of the food we have in 'Lancky' and the many great places we can get it.

Couln't agree more about Booths - what a fantastic shop - hopefully they're opening one about 10 mins walk from my front door - can't wait - currently i go to the one in Longton.

Keep it up although I expect I'll be putting on a few pounds by visiting....ho, ho, ho.
