Recipe: Cinnamon Crunch Berry Pies
Smart way of using those smushed up berries {v, nf}
I’ve traded last week’s Swedish forests for Sydney’s surf (at least on my days off!). I’m currently down under filming another season of The Great Australian Bake Off, and I still can’t believe I get to call this "work"—eating cake and offering some constructive feedback on the bakes. The rental I’m staying in has a pretty basic kitchen setup, so I’ve been leaning into easy bakes that don’t require a ton of equipment. These bad boys fit the bill perfectly!
This versatile recipe is perfect for using up any kind of fruit you have on hand. Even frozen berries work beautifully here, with breadcrumbs helping to absorb all those delicious juices. Not a berry fan? No problem—chopped apples or pears make excellent substitutes. This recipe is ideal for giving new life to overripe or slightly squished fruit, turning what might otherwise be discarded into a delightful treat.
