Blackberry and Apple Chutney
Having a huge amount of Blackberries this year growing in our allotments behind our shed, I have picked and frozen many.. So imagine my joy when I came across this recipe ..
Blackberry and Apple Chutney
You will need
Ingredients:
Apples 1 Kilo of peeled cored and cubed cooking apples
Onions 300 grams thinly sliced
Knob of butter and a tbsp of olive oil
Sugar 275 grams of granulated
Balsamic Vinegar 150ml
Ground Cinnamon 2 teaspoons
Blackberries 300 grams
Black Pepper- ground added to taste.
Method
Sweat down the onions in a large pan on gentle heat with butter and little oil until soft
Add the Sugar and apples and balsamic viniger and cinnamon and a couple of turns of freshly ground black pepper and slowly bring to the boil..
Turn down heat and allow to simmer for about 35 mins as you allow liquid to reduce, so do not cover with a lid
Then add your Blackberries and cook for a further 10 to 15 minutes..
Allow to cool slightly and pour ( you will find the liquid has become slightly thicker ) into sterilized preserving jars …
Love to eat this on cheese with crackers, or with salads or on your favourite sandwich

I’ve got far too many apples Sue and dad’s blackberries plus the wild ones so I must give your recipe a try as it sounds very tasty. I can imagine it will go well with creamy goats or sheeps cheese. Thank you. Lolxx

Fantastic recipe,not very difficult to make it.
It sounds like a very pleasant salad-dressing;the idea of spreading it on cheese and having it with crackers is perfect!I suppose,it’s the best way to finish your supper and help the digestion process too.Thank you for sharing it with us,darling Sue 🙂 xxx

It is a lovely simple recipe.. I made it this time, I didn’t sweat down the onions, I cut them more finely into very thin shreads and placed them with the apples, cinnamon, balsamic , sugar vinegar etc and cooked all together for 40 mins on slow heat.. until all nice and soft and thickened.. Then add the blackberries I cooked for a further 15, Perfect..
I had some last evening with some cheese and crackers for supper.. 🙂 Oh and yes a glass of red wine went down a treat 🙂 with it lol.. xxx Hugs Sue x

I love blackberries and alas can’t get them here and then last week someone showed a picture of loganberries which they were feeding to their chooks…So I have been promised some the downside I miss Bramley apples but I have some coming via a suitcase all my friends and family bring over what I can’t get here.It sounds like a lovely recipe with the balsamic added 🙂
