Sul-sul! On This Lovely Rainy Summers Day, Another Entry From The Redwall Cookbok Enters Our Lives- Squirrelmums

Sul-sul! On this lovely rainy summers day, another entry from the Redwall Cookbok enters our lives- Squirrelmum’s Blackberry and Apple Cake! 

(If youd like to follow along, the original recipe is at the bottom <3)-

MY NAMES CROSS NOW LETS COOK LIKE ANIMALS

SO, “what goes in to a Blackberry and Apple Cake?” YOU MIGHT ASK

All-purpose flour

Almond flour (or finely ground almonds)

Baking powder

Unsalted butter

Apple juice

Eggs

Vanilla extract

A cooking apple (like Granny Smith)

Fresh or frozen blackberries

Raw or granulated sugar

Salt

AND, “what does Blackberry and Apple Cake taste like?” YOU MIGHT ASK

Tastes a lil fruity. Like me. You can laugh now.

Tart

A little smokey but only because I dont have a closer word to describe

Spongey-buttery consistency, muffin-like

Very rich (maybe due to almond powder?)

The crust tastes almost like apple pancakes

Makes your kitchen smell like jam

I could see this being a good choice for a birthday cake

Would probably pair well with powdered sugar on top

. Used ground almonds

. Used salted butter and pinch of salt instead of teaspoon

———————————————————————————————————–

This cake is delicious and entirely unassuming in appearance.

This is the part where I’d give my in-depth thoughts n such, but honestly? Yeah not much to say here. Its like the pillsbury doughwhore croissants. They’re good and does it really have to be anything else? This cake is entirely satisfied with who it is. This cake knows that a life well-lived is whatever life it lives. A hard boiled egg. A corkboard. A little black dress. And Squirrelum’s Apple and Blackberry Cake. I do recommend you make this one if only because I’m sure, barring any lethal fruit allergies, it could never offend you.

A solid 7/10 (with 1 being food that makes one physically sick and 10 being food that gives one a lust for life again.)

Thank you, Alex, for this troubled youth. Veil makes me so sad I love him so much… he could’ve had such a future.

Veil did well with his life

This art is evocative and very good

Have a troubled youth, courtesy of Outcast still living rent-free in my head.

Also courtesy of my further attempts to get back into drawing stuff.

Great heavens, this is amazing. I am so impressed and inspired I love it so much. Wow. Wowowowowow I don’t even have the words.

I finished my hand embroidered Redwall Map Pillow. We go as far south as the big inland lake, and as far north as Martin the Warrior.

I smashed some maps together to include what I wanted since the maps tend to be inconsistent, largely built of the map from The Redwall Map and Riddler.

This took. So many months to make.

Matthias of Redwall

Yes!! Absolutely, and I never even thought about Green Isle

XD Maybe “ferret” is just the Redwall word for polecat and they aren’t truly domesticated- like the “potatoes” that also would’ve found it difficult to reach Great Britain
