Blackberry Crostata

This is an amazingly easy and delicious cake, based on my grandmother's recipe for crostata.
You can substitute any fruit as long as it's not too watery.


200g Whole Unskinned Almonds
200g Plain Flour
200g Butter
150g Sugar
500g Blackberries

Pre-heat oven to 180°C: 350°F: Gas 4
Roughly process the almonds, butter, flour and sugar till well blended, but not completely cohesive.
Press into a greased 10” pie tin, pushing the dough up the sides to create a thick pie-crust.
Fill with the blackberries.
Bake for 30mins – or until lightly browned.
