Blackberry & coconut squares |
This lovely crumbly bake won the under-11s category of our 20th birthday cake competition.
Ingredients
- 250g self-raising flour
- 25g oats
- 280g soft brown sugar
- 200g cold butter, cut into pieces
- 75g desiccated coconut
- 2 medium eggs, beaten
- 350g frozen or fresh blackberry
Method
- Heat
oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tip the flour, oats and sugar into a large
bowl. Rub the butter into the flour mixture using your fingertips until
only small pea-size pieces remain. Stir through the coconut, then fill a
teacup with the mixture and set this aside.
- Stir
the eggs into the bowl of mixture, then spread over the bottom of a
lined baking tin (31 x 17cm), or a 21cm square tin. Smooth the surface
with the back of a spoon, then scatter over the blackberries. Scatter
over the reserved teacup mixture and bake for 1 hr-1 hr 15 mins until
golden and cooked through (if you poke a skewer in, it should come out
with moist crumbs but no wet mixture). Leave to cool, then remove from
the tin and cut into squares. Serve with some extra berries, if you
like. Great for teatime or to pop into a lunchbox.
