Fruit-based desserts
Long Description to add
Serves 6A Summer Trifle with Raspberries and Raspberry Puree
No cooking here - just an assembly job involving ready-made custard, trifle sponges and a few other magic ingredients. You'll end up with a trifle that will be loved by everyone!
Serves 6Caribbean Bananas Baked in Rum served with Rum Syllabub
Rum-soaked raisins and rum in the syllabub mean that this recipe has an alcoholic kick to it… A really lovely dessert that's easy to make and will go down a treat.
Serves 8-10Baked Vanilla Cheesecake with Rhubarb Compote
This foolproof baked cheesecake comes from a book by Delia's friend, Michelin-starred chef Galton Blackiston at Morston Hall on the North Norfolk coast. Delia uses rhubarb, but you could easily ring the changes.
English Apple and Almond Trifle with Calvados
Mmmm…apple fans will swoon over this fabulous trifle, with its Calvados-soaked trifle sponges, apple puree and custard layer, with mascarpone and almonds on top.
Makes 2½ pints (1.5 litres)Blueberry Crumble Fromage Frais Ice Cream
Summer fruits make wonderful ice creams, and one of my favourites is crumble ice cream. One of the best is made with blueberries – the colour looks very attractive, and the flavour of the blueberries and the added crunch of crumble make this a stunni
Serves 6-8Blackcurrant Ice Cream
If you find blackcurrants a bit too strong, or can't track them down, use other fruit such as raspberries or loganberries. Either way, you'll need to eat this within three weeks of making it, but that's no hardship!
Serves 4Apple and Blackberry Pie
This traditional pudding will go down a treat after a roast lunch on Sunday - serve it with plenty of cream for the finishing touch.
Serves 8Cranachan with Caramelised Oatmeal & Raspberry Sauce
Cream, raspberries and toasted oatmeal drenched in whisky: what a combination! Perfect for Hogmanay, St Andrew's Day, Burns Night or any other excuse.
Serves 4Baked Apple Meringues with Orange-soaked Raisins
Who says dieters have to miss out? This wonderful low-fat dessert will please dieters and non-dieters alike and is a good way to achieve one of your five-a-day in the process!
Serves 4Apple and Orange Crunch
I like this crunchy pudding, served with proper custard sauce or, failing that, a thick pouring cream.
