🫐 Taste a berry first to gauge tartness before adding sugar to the fruit layer, and adjust the amount accordingly.
🧈 Resist the urge to stir the berries into the batter, as the crust will naturally rise and envelop them during baking.
🍦 Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven to restore the crisp topping.
