  I liked this... I had to cook it for longer than the recipe said. But next time I won't do the crumble topping... I just didnt like the contrast with the nice moist cake

  Delicious! the first time it sunk in the middle, second time sunk as well but not too much, third time was the winner! :-) It disappears instantly as you can't do with just one slice....so I would recommend to make more than one loaf!

  I doubled the recipe to use loganberries picked from my garden. Baked it in a square pan rather than two loaf pans and it still came out moist and delicious. Had to bake it for much longer so will use two loaf pans next time but still pleased with result.

  Loved this cake, made with blackberries from the garden and it tasted yummy, went down well with everyone at work too. Easy enough to make. Loved the crumble topping.

  Scrummy - really moist and tasty. I used fresh blackberries and frozen apple slices. Some reservations about the topping - I didn't get the "fine breadcrumb" texture I was aiming for - it was lumpy and I had to use a knife to chop it up a bit. The crunch topping also made it quite tricky to cut - prone to the topping coming off. Might try it without that next time, but will definitely be making it again. Yum!

  Fantastic with homemade custard as a pudding or on its own with a big mug of tea. Will definitely make again as very simple.

  Wonderful, definitely try this recipe! Tried this cake as we had loads of blackberries from berry picking to use up! But what a surprise to find such a great outcome, the cake is a real winner, moist and lovely with a hot cuppa. Your friends and family will truly love it too!!!!! 5 stars...

  I've made this cake three times in two weeks because the kids, hubby and my father love it!! Would have to agree though with the comments about putting less blackberries in, my first cake fell apart! Yummy though!! It's definitely going to become a regular!!

  Used demerera sugar and maybe this made it heavier than looks in the picture - tastes fab - will do again

  A Very nice cake. The children loved it, especially the topping. Make sure you let it cool before trying to slice it as it will fall apart.

  Really nice- we went apple and blackberry picking so this was perfect. Used dark muscovado as had no light but was still lovely - and lemon zest also. Lovely warm with ice cream.

  Couldn't taste much apple so I substituted a small Bramley apple ( I don't like cakes too sweet). I also thought the fat/flour blend was too sticky and had to add more flour, next time I will reduce the butter content. I also added an extra egg. The result ? lovely ! Went down well with the family. Highly recommended. Get out there pickin' blackberries before they are all gone.

  Yum Yum Yum! I substituted with frozen raspberries, granny smith apple, golden granulated sugar and ordinary brown sugar (I had these ingredients on hand) and it turned out beautifully. Easy to make and will definitely do so again. Hubby and son love it - I'll be surprised if it makes it to 48hrs!

  This is an excellent recipe, I had lots of apples and added a couple of extra, I also grated them with the skins on, it works a treat and everyone loves it.
