Fruit Cobbler

This is a simple but delightful dessert that can be whipped up in an hour from start to finish and served hot with Ice cream. It is easy to make and just out of this world. You can use your imagination and change the ingredients to make it your own. I have made several different varieties and am still trying new fruit and nut combinations just to keep things interesting. You can use regular sugar or brown sugar and each will give it's own flavor. Try using nuts or granola for a different crunchy texture.

Recipe:

1/2 a cube of butter melted and a bit more to grease the pan with
3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons of sugar
1 cup flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup milk
2 cups fruit
Ice cream or whipped cream topping

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.















Grease a 2 quart baking dish















 Here I use brown sugar 















In a medium bowl whisk 3/4 cup sugar, flour and baking powder until blended.

























Whisk in milk and melted butter.
 
Prepare fruit of your choice and nuts if you like. Pat the fruit dry.
















Pour the batter into the baking dish. 


























Sprinkle the fruit evenly over the batter.

























I used strawberries and brown sugar for this recipe. 
















Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of sugar over the top of fruit.















Bake for 30 minutes
















 I'm using sifted powdered sugar for this cobbler














Sprinkle 1 table spoon of sugar over the top and bake another 10 minutes.
















Top with whipped cream or ice cream or both.
