BLACKBERRY AND APPLE CRUMBLE

When we first moved to the Far North in the early 1970's we used to collect blackberries  from various farms.  Gradually, over the years the blackberries must have been cleared and it ended up with us not getting any blackberries.

A year ago we purchased a raspberry and a blackberry cane at the local Growers' Market.  We are now harvesting the most delicious large blackberries.  At first we thought we would just get a few and were eating them "as is".  We then realised that we were not keeping up so last week I made a blackberry and apple crumble.  It was delicious.  We are still picking blackberries and there are still more forming.  The raspberry is just starting to set fruit so we hope it is as successful.  If not it will come out and be replaced by another blackberry from the first one.

The funny thing is that my memory of picking blackberries in England is that they were an autumn fruit whereas it is spring/early summer here.
