Blackberry and Apple Crumble Muffins

I finally got rid of all those blackberries!!

Homemade Blackberry Jam

More blackberries!! Honestly, we picked so many I'm struggling to get rid of them all, so to make a significant dent in our stash I decided to make my first ever homemade jam! I definitely made a dent, I ended up making 5 jars of the stuff... At least we won't be running out of jam any time soon!

Blackberry and Apple Pie (made with hand picked blackberries!)

Blackberries are so easy to find in the wild over the summer, and with all this hot weather they're growing in abundance! I love blackberry picking; it always feels (and tastes) so much better baking with ingredients you have hand picked yourself. I have always wanted to make a pie, so settled on an absolute classic - blackberry and apple pie!

The sun's still here - yay! Time to make the most of it before summer flies by! Here's what made me smile this week...

Raspberry Bakewell Cake

Summer's here! Or at least it feels like it. And what better way to help get into the summer mood than by baking a cake using the season's berries?
