Feed your family for under a fiver #3 Berry nice pudding


This week we took advantage of natures bounty to source some free food.....blackberries, yum. Most of the group had never been blackberry picking before and we felt like kids as we set off armed with our tuppawares. After lots of giggles and a few pricked fingers we had a reasonable haul and came back to start baking a crumble. This was a really cheap pudding as it used ingredients that we already had in our cupboard. I didn't remember to take a photo, and no one reminded me- i was far too eager to fill my face! This is an easy recipe- a fun one to make with the kids.
