So, I've been missing Hawaii a lot lately, and decided to post a recipe I concocted while out on the Big Island. This was made with fresh blackberries I picked along the Mauna Loa Volcano. Any berries could do just fine, but the blackberries were really pretty. Oh, and I thought of the recipe as a way to use up jam that I always seem to have a lot of from home canning. So, just substitute in jam for the berries and sugar. I thought the crust was a nice gluten-free shortbread of sorts and think it could be used nicely in many other recipes. This was my first attempt at this recipe, so I would probably play around with a few things in the future, but they were still pretty yummy as is. Enjoy!
