Chefs tips

By using eating apples in this recipe, rather than the cooking variety, you don't need to add any extra sugar. This is because eating apples are naturally sweeter.
Apple skins contain fibre so avoid peeling them.
Blackberries are packed with antioxidants, including vitamin C, and they're also a good source of fibre.
Wholegrains, such as oats, contain a type of fibre called beta-glucan which can help to lower cholesterol if eaten regularly.
