Method

  1. Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tumble ¾ of the berries into a medium baking dish. Whizz the remainder of the berries in a food processor to make a purée, then stir this into the dish along with 2 tbsp sugar.
  2. Spread the loaf slices with butter, then cut into triangles. Cover the top of the fruit with the bread slices, then scatter with the rest of the sugar. Cover with foil, bake for 10 mins, uncover the dish, then bake for 5 mins more until the fruit is starting to bubble and the bread is toasty. Serve with dollops of crème fraîche or fromage frais.

Saucy berries & ice cream

Just warm the fruit and the purée with sugar and a splash of booze in a saucepan - serve over ice cream and scoff with biscuits.

    I found I had both the loaf and the summer fruits in the freezer so thought I would try this pudding out. I added a little Creme de Cassis to the fruit and the result was delicious. I will certainly make this again.
