Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan)/350°F/gas mark 4. Grease a medium-sized baking dish and set it aside.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Place them in the baking dish along with the blackberries.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly over the fruit and gently mix to coat. Set this aside while you prepare the pudding batter.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and caster sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer or a wooden spoon.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Sift the self-raising flour into the bowl, then fold it gently into the wet ingredients using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Add the milk to the batter and mix until the mixture has a smooth, dropping consistency.
Using a spoon, spread the batter evenly over the fruit layer in the baking dish, making sure to cover the fruit completely.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes or until the sponge is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the pudding to cool for 5–10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with custard, cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
