LesleyH Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 I got this recipe off the internet as I harvested loads of blackberries but had no apples for pie. It was weird but I went with it and WOW. We immediately went out and collected loads more to freeze...try it! INGREDIENTS 225 g butter or margarine, divided 200 g sugar 235 ml water 190 g self-rising flour* 80 ml milk, room temperature 290 g fresh or frozen blackberries 1 g ground cinnamon 25 g sugar Add to Recipe Box My folders: Add to Shopping List Customize Recipe Add a Personal Note ..DIRECTIONS 1.In a 10-in. round or oval baking dish, melt 1/2 cup butter; set aside. In a saucepan, heat sugar and water until sugar melts; set aside. Place flour in a mixing bowl; cut in remaining butter until fine crumbs form. Add milk, stirring with a fork until dough leaves sides of bowl. Turn out onto a floured surface; knead three or four times. Roll out to an 11-in. x 9-in. rectangle 1/4 in. thick. Spread berries over dough; sprinkle with cinnamon. Roll up, jelly-roll style. Cut into 1/4-in. thick slices. Carefully lay slices in baking dish over butter. Pour sugar syrup around slices (syrup will be absorbed). Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes. Sprinkle sugar over top and bake 15 minutes more. Serve warm or cold. (*If self-rising flour is not available, use 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour plus 1/4 teaspoon salt and 2-1/4 teaspoons baking powder.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
