๐กPress the berries slightly into the mix so they donโt dry out during baking.
Step 7: Bake it
๐ฅ Place the dish in the oven and bake for 20 minutes until golden on top.
๐กCheck for doneness by gently pressing the centre โ it should bounce back slightly.
Step 8: Cool it down
๐ฌ๏ธ Let it cool for 5โ10 minutes before eating.
๐กResting helps the texture firm up for that perfect spoonful.
Step 9: Serve warm
๐ฝ๏ธ Grab a spoon and enjoy it straight from the dish โ no slicing, no plates!
