Equipment

  • 1.2litre (2 pint) greased ovenproof dish

Ingredients
 

  • 500 g apples
  • 150 g blackberries
  • 200 g golden caster sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp cornflour
  • 150 g self-raising flour
  • 50 g chilled butter, cubed
  • 100 ml buttermilk
  • 1 tbsp demerara sugar

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oven to 200C, 180C Fan, 400F
  • 500 g apples
    Fill a bowl with water, peel the apples and put into the water to stop them browning. Quarter, core and slice the apples and place in the ovenproof dish.
  • 150 g blackberries, 200 g golden caster sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 tbsp cornflour
    Add the blackberries to the apples and sprinkle over 50g (2oz) of the sugar, as well as the cinnamon and cornflour.
  • Gently stir everything together to mix the apples and blackberries with the dry ingredients.
  • 150 g self-raising flour, 50 g chilled butter, cubed, 200 g golden caster sugar
    Put the flour in a bowl or food processor, add the butter and the remaining 150g (5oz) sugar, and cut with a knife or whizz until it forms crumbs.
  • 100 ml buttermilk
    Add the buttermilk and blend until a squidgy dough forms.
  • Scatter clumps of the dough over the fruit - don't cover completely.
  • 1 tbsp demerara sugar
    Sprinkle with the demerara sugar and bake for 40 minutes, or until the fruit is tender and the cobbler golden.
