Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 190°C and line a 23x33cm Swiss roll tin with baking parchment.
  • Whisk eggs, sugar, and vanilla seeds in a bowl until light, fluffy, and thickened.
  • Sift the flour over the egg mixture and gently fold it in.
  • Pour the batter into the lined tin and smooth it out evenly with a spatula.
  • Bake the sponge for 10 to 12 minutes until just firm to the touch.
  • Dust a large sheet of baking parchment with caster sugar.
  • Flip the sponge onto the sugared paper, remove the bottom parchment, and let it cool slightly.
  • Whip the double cream and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  • Simmer blackberries, sugar, and 60ml of water in a saucepan for five minutes and let cool.
  • Spread the blackberry compote over the sponge, leaving a 2cm border.
  • Spread the whipped cream over the compote and sprinkle with whole blackberries.
  • Roll up the sponge tightly from the long edge, dust with icing sugar, and slice.
