  These are great! Have made them on several occasions for family/ work and always get good comments! Very quick and easy. I just use frozen rasperries defrosted - work fine. The pine nuts are lovely but next time I may try some other nuts such as chopped walnuts to see how that works...

  YUMMY - I think it's the pine nuts that make these different!

  Absolutely dee-lish!! I had these round a friends last summer after lunch and fell in love with them. I asked her for the recipe and i've made them lots of times, sometimes adding other berries too, i think pretty much any summer berry would work well, might even give a go with some apricots! Serve as they are as a healthy snack or with a little lacing of cream! They're beautiful and a keeper in my recipe book!

  Taste delicious. I made them with frozen defrosted raspberries and cook them for a lot longer than the recipe stated (about an hour in total) for them to stay together.

  These are fantastic! Took them to work along with triple choc brownies (another GF recipe) and the bars went first. Not bad for an office full of chocoholics! Also had requests for the recipe. Def making again!

  I agree these are fantastic. I made them in a static caravan in the middle of the Scottish Highlands (!) - I couldn't get pine nuts at the local shop so used flaked almonds which worked well, though probably don't give the same unusual tang. Excellent for dessert or just with coffee - a warning though: don't go deluding yourself that these are healthy, they have a whole pack of butter in them! All wholesome stuff though.

  I found the quantities weren't quite right for me with a bit too much butter, once i added a bit more flour and oats it was lovely. I used pecan's instead of pine nuts which worked very well.

  These are really good but I too found there was a bit too much butter in them for me, I will try them with a bit less next time.

  I make this with blackberries (free from a hedgerow near you!) and walnuts, and think it tastes even better than the original.

  They were very tasty! I love the addition of the pine nuts, which transforms the flavour from good to brilliant and provides an interesting texture too.

  Totally delicious! Fresh sharp raspberrys mix well with the the crunchy sweet oaty base. Have made this several times and always comes out well. So simple to make with no great finesse needed ideal when you're in a hurry. Would highly recommend.

  These were really yummy, but I found that they fell apart very easily. When left overnight, they did hold together better tho'. I also found them quite tricky to get out of the tin. Would still make them again.
