We made this with blackberries we picked on our walk back from the pharmacy. If you like custard this is great (my kids don't but I do). I messed this up by starting to make 1/2 the recipe then added the full amount of sugar... I increased what I could of the other ingredients but the custard was much more plentiful than the berries. I made some other major substitutions: egg beaters for eggs, bread flour for all-purpose, Splenda for caster sugar and 7-inch square casserole. I also didn't use the brandy because of having the kids taste it. Results: Baked 45-50 minutes - still runny (not runny after sitting about 2 hours), taste was OK but definitely missed the brandy. Nice dish for berries, thanks for posting! Reviewed for ZWT6.
