Berries with Caramelised Cream

Image
This is another fantastic recipe that I have tried from Sarah Wilson's I Quit Sugar book! A great wee treat when you are craving something sweet. I use frozen berries for this recipe but you can use fresh berries as well. You can choose which berries you use - I like to have a combination of blueberries, strawberries and raspberries. Ingredients 500g blueberries, raspberries & strawberries 250g mascarpone 1 tablespoons of sour cream 2 tablespoons of double cream 1 large egg & 1 egg white 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence or seeds from 1 vanilla pod Pinch of salt Method 1. Preheat the oven  to 200-220 ℃ and put the oven shelf in the middle of the oven. 2. Put the berries into a casserole dish. 3. Whisk all of the remaining ingredients together until completely smooth, then pour over the berries. 4. Put the dish into the oven and cook for 10-20 minutes (with frozen berries) or 5-10 minutes (fresh berries) until topping is
