Blackberry and apple crispy crumble bars



100g plain flour 
80g rolled oats 
85g butter
70g Demerara sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon 
120g blackberries 
2 small apples, peeled, cored and sliced
2 tsp granulated sugar 
1 heaped tsp. Cornflour 

If you use a microwave safe baking dish about 20cm x 20 cm square you can save on washing up.

Put the butter straight in the baking dish and melt in the microwave (about 1 min, stirring occasionally).
Mix together the oats, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon in a separate bowl, then stir it straight into the butter in the baking pan. 
Mix it well, then remove 1/2 cup of the mixture and set it aside.
Press the remaining mixture into the baking pan with the back of a spoon.
Toss the fruit into the cornflour and granulated sugar, then put it on top of the base mixture.
Sprinkle the reserved half cup of oat mixture over the top and bake at 180 c for about half an hour until golden.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan before cutting into 9 squares.
Serve as is, or with cream or ice cream.
