Tips:

 

Try snipping the blackberries with kitchen scissors rather than dirtying a sharp knife and chopping board – far less washing up!

 

If you have missed blackberry season, replace blackberries with frozen raspberries, currants or blackcurrants. All work well.

 

Serve warm with sour cream or marscapone for a luscious Autumn pud!
