Red, White & Blue Berry Bake with White Chocolate

This easy to make berry bake is filled with bananas, strawberries and blueberries and topped with white chocolate for a delicious red, white and blue dessert. Perfect for any holiday gathering - and great to prep ahead of time. Serve over vanilla ice cream for the ultimate, indulgent experience.

I don't often go for dessert - but when I do, it's almost always a "gino", as we call it in Sweden - basically a white chocolate covered fruit and/or berry bake served over vanilla ice cream. For this red, white and blue version it's loaded with berries - for a luxurious yet super easy dessert, that you can prep all the way hours before your guests arrive. (For a different, but equally easy, delicious & preppable verson - check out this gino fruit bake with banana, kiwi, raspberries and passion fruit.)

This version comes out as almost a sauce for your ice cream - a sauce filled with delicious sweet white chocolate and tart, flavorful berries, that is. Does it get any better??

How to make this recipe

I told you it was easy, didn't I? Well - that was entirely true. And all you need equipment-wise is a baking dish, a knife, and something to shred your white chocolate with.

1. As for ingredients, you need a couple of sliced bananas (slice them about ½ cm or ¼ thick), strawberries with the hull removed and cut in half, whole blueberries and shredded white chocolate.

2. Start by preheating your oven for 225 C/440 F. Then place your banana slices in the bottom of your baking dish.
3. Follow with the strawberries cut in half.
4. And then the blueberries.

5. Finally, top with the shredded white chocolate. Then bake for 10 minuts - using the grill function for the last 5 minutes, if you have it. Otherwise just add 5 more minuts if it's not golden after 10 minutes.
6. Then bring it out, and while still hot serve it together with vanilla ice cream.

Expert tips

• Switch up the banana & berries as you like - other great options to include are raspberries and kiwi but I bet you can find even more.
• Use the grill function on your oven to get that nice golden crisp on top.
• If it's not golden after 10 minutes - just give it five more minutes.
• Prep it ahead of time - just make it all the way until you're ready to stick it in the oven, then cover and place it in the fridge until it's time to bake.
