Default The story of Blackberries is not complete:
About 3 or 4 days ago, I discovered that I had neglected an important part of the story about Blackberries. You know, the story in the Daily Sun with the recipe.

One of the best things about Blackberries is the very high vitamin C content. Two cups will give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance (RDA).
The recipe for Blackberry crisp calls for baking in the oven at 375 for 20 to 25 minutes, or until filling is bubbly.

Vitamin C is very sensitive to heat and light so there's no telling how much of it gets destroyed by baking.

The End.
