Serves 6

Cooking time: 20 minutes

What You’ll Need:

  • 50g muscovado sugar
  • 65g ground almonds
  • 50g plain flour
  • 50g cold butter
  • 200g Sweet Eve strawberries
  • 200g fresh blackberries
  • 120g caster sugar
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp rosewater
  • 2 tbsp elderflower water
  • Fresh cream for serving

What To Do:

  • Pre-heat the oven to 160°C.
  • To make the crumble, pour the muscovado sugar, ground almonds and flour into a roomy bowl and mix well. Rub in the butter until a lumpy, crumbly dough starts forming.
  • Place the crumble mixture on a baking tray that has been lined with baking parchment. Bake for 20 minutes, then set the crumble aside to cool.
  • Slice the Sweet Eve strawberries into small pieces and then place in a saucepan with the blackberries, caster sugar, and lemon juice.
  • Place on a medium heat and keep mixing, so as to form a soft compote syrup, mashing the berries with a wooden spoon. This should take around 8 minutes. Take off the heat to cool slightly and mix in the rosewater and elderflower cordial.
  • To serve, place the Sweet Eve strawberry compote syrup at the bottom of a serving cup or plate and sprinkle the crumble on top. Serve with fresh cream.
