Steps:
- Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Line a 27 x 18cm baking tin with baking parchment.
- Rub the butter into the flour, almonds and sugar to make crumbs, then firmly press two-thirds onto the base and sides of the tin. Toss the gooseberries with the caster sugar, then scatter over the top.
- Mix the flaked almonds into the remaining crumbs, then scatter over the gooseberries. Bake for 50 mins-1 hr until golden and the fruit is bubbling a little around the edges. Dredge with caster sugar, then cool in the tin. Cut into about 8 squares and enjoy with a cup of tea or serve as a pudding with custard or cream.

GOOSEBERRY SQUARES
Utterly delicious seasonal squares. Gooey and crisp at the same time with a lovely gooseberry tartness. I made these because I absolutely love gooseberries and couldn't find many recipes on how to use them other than the few I already knew. For the uninitiated, gooseberries are like bitter green marbles...I know tempting...But, once you treat them with sugar and heat they given out a unique taste that's hard to describe. Kind of like if you crossed a kiwi with some rhubarb...but nicer.

Steps:
- Grease a 13x9 pan with butter, then cover in tin foil and grease foil again wtih butter.
- For the base, sift together the dry ingredients and then cut in the butter until the mixture is like coarse crumbs. Press onto tin foil. Bake in an oven at 180' for 10 minutes or until pale golden in colour.
- Remove from oven.
- Mix together eggs, sugar, vanilla and flour. Then you can either roughly chop gooseberries and mix in or toss in gooseberries whole and mulch up with your hands (latter gives a more integrated flavour but it is messy).
- Pour wet mix onto base and put back in the oven for approx 35 minutes or until the top is nicely firm and the berries are showing up brown in places.
- Enjoy!
