APRICOT & RASPBERRY BUCKLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Butter and line the base of a 23cm square tin. For the crumble mix, put 2 tbsp flour and 25g of the butter with the demerara sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Rub between your fingers until it resembles damp breadcrumbs.

Carefully remove the plastic wrap (be careful to avoid the hot steam) and let the apricots come to room temperature, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
• Put 1 teaspoon ricotta in each phyllo shell. Gently press 1 apricot into each shell, slightly to the side, and place 1 raspberry next to it. Drizzle a little of the sauce the apricots cooked in over the top. Repeat with the remaining ingredients and serve.
