blackberries!

[anne]

A friend has thornless blackberries in her back yard, and she invited me over to pick what I wanted. I ate a quart as I picked, like ya do, but I still filled a gallon pail. They're awesome with Greek yogurt and dark brown sugar, in the absence of maple syrup. Today I made an olive oil cake with a cup of strained pulp and a cup of whole berries. I can highly recommend the idea!

Thank you for introducing me to the term "au ruban", which I am delighted by.

ETA: Google tells me there are versions with almond flour, which sounds appealing -- I shall have to experiment ...

I got "au ruban" from Hanne, so we're even. ;-)

Almond flour! Mmm. I wonder if it'd work with chestnut flour. Someday I shall live in a place where those are not Exotic Unfindable Ingredients.
