Before I put away all the baking stuff I had to make something sweet and seasonal to give us a bit of a lift through all this packing.
Apple and blackberry hand pies. They’re never going to win any beauty contests, but they tasted delicious.
Shortcrust pastry was enriched with egg, sugar and ground almonds to make it crumbly and crispy on the outside, almost like a biscuit. These were filled with lightly poached Coxes Orange Pippin apples and big, juicy blackberries.
We ate these over the last few days whenever we needed a lift. It helped.
Food can be medicine for the spirit, you know.

They look delicious -‘I’m thinking clotted cream ice cream or custard or maybe all three!

Lol. They only lasted a day and a half I half in ours. We finished the last of them off for breakfast a few days ago. Is that bad? 🙂
