Cutie Pie

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 190C/170C Fan/Gas 5. Melt the butter over a medium heat. Add the berries, caster sugar, vanilla pod and seeds, cornflour, and 2tbsp water. Cover, bring to the boil and simmer for 5 mins, stirring occasionally. Pour into an ovenproof dish.

2. 2

   Roll out the pastry. Using a heart-shaped cutter, cut out 10 large hearts and 10 small ones. Brush them all with the egg wash, place the small hearts on top of the large hearts, then arrange on top of the mixed berries.

3. 3

   Bake in the oven for 20 mins until the pastry is golden and the berry middle is bubbling. Serve with a drizzle of double cream (if using) and dust with icing sugar.
