Ingredients

  • 125g blackberries
  • 1/2 lemon, juice only
  • 25g caster sugar
  • 100g pumpkin flesh
  • 100g rolled oats
  • 400ml milk
  • 2tbsp honey
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

Method:

  1. To make the blackberry compôte, place the blackberries, lemon juice and sugar into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Continue to cook for 5 minutes and then allow to cool.
  2. Dice the pumpkin into small equal sized pieces and place into a saucepan with the oats and milk and bring to a simmer. Continue to stir for 5 minutes until thick and creamy.
  3. Add the honey and a pinch of salt, add a little more milk if it’s too thick.
  4. Check the pumpkin is tender and pour into a bowl. Top with a spoonful of blackberry compote and serve warm.

Chefs Tip:

To make this dish savoury, remove the honey and add plenty of grated Parmesan. It’ll still work with the blackberry compôte.
