Can I use different fruit for this traybake?

Yes! You can use different fresh berries or a mixture of your favourite fruit. Strawberries, cherries, peaches and blackberries would all work well.

Can I use frozen berries?

Yes, you can use frozen berries if that's what you have. Add them straight from frozen and keep in mind that they may release a little more moisture while baking.

Can I make this fruit traybake ahead of time?

Yes. You can make it a day ahead and store it in an airtight container. Let it cool completely before storing.

Instructions

First, preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Melt a little vegan butter and brush it evenly over a 20 × 30 cm baking tray.
Add the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt to a large bowl and mix.
Then pour in the water, plant-based milk, oil and vanilla extract. Mix gently until the batter is smooth, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared tray and spread it evenly.
Arrange the raspberries and blueberries evenly over the top of the batter.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Let the cake cool before slicing into squares. Serve as it is or with a dusting of icing sugar.

Notes

I used a mixture of fresh raspberries and blueberries, but you can use your favourite berries or other fresh fruit.
Let the traybake cool before slicing so the pieces are easier to cut and hold their shape.
