Peel, core and slice the apples. Carefully mix with the blackberries,

dish. Brush with a little water. Lift the remaining pastry and lay over

pastry by pressing around the edge with the back of a knife and then
press around with the thumb making a decorate edge. Brush with water and
sprinkle with castor sugar. Make a few slashes on top. Bake in a
preheated 200C oven for 40 mins until apples are tender and pastry
puffed and golden. Serve piping hot with heavy cream. Lattice finish
alternative: Instead of a complete pastry crust, a lattice crust can be
made. Simply cut pastry sheet into strips and lay in a criss-cross
fashion over the fruit, pressing the edges down well on the wetted pie
dish edge. A pastry rim can be used, if liked, using a strip of pastry
around the edge.
