SERVES 4-6 | PREP TIME: 15 minutes | COOK TIME: 40 minutes
INGREDIENTS
Berry Filling
- 750g Mixed Berries
- 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
- 85g white sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Biscuit Topping
- 210g plain flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 35g caster sugar
- 1/4 tbsp baking powder
- 90g butter- cut into small cubes and keep cold
- 150ml thickened cream
- 1 egg- beaten
METHOD
1 Pre-heat the oven to 180*C.
2 Combine the berries with the cornstarch and toss to coat. Add the sugar, lemon juice and vanilla and mix well. Spread the berry mixture evenly onto your skillet.
3 For the topping, in a mixer with a paddle attachment, mix the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder on low speed. Add the diced cold butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Pour in the cream, and continue to mix on low speed until everything is evenly combined.
4 Transfer the dough to a floured surface, and roll out into a 1cm thick sheet. Use cookie cutters to stamp out stars, then arrange these over the fruit so that they are touching.
5 Brush the stars with the egg wash, then bake for 30-40 minutes or until the berry syrup is bubbling all around the edges, and the biscuits are golden brown.
6 Dust over with a layer of icing sugar, and serve warm with a scoop of ice cream.
