★★★★★ Rated 5 out of 5 stars.We went blackberry picking in Victoria park last week and still had blackberries left over after we'd made jam. I decided to substitute the raspberries for blackberries, still using apples from our garden too. This little recipe is perfect and a great way for the kids to learn about picking their own crops and then making something fabulous with them,

★★★★★ Rated 5 out of 5 stars.These tasted beautiful. I did turn them two thirds of the way through the cooking though to get an even bake. Easy to adapt too - chocolate chips, raisins etc.
